Solved Reverse DNS for local IP's.

[unsynaps]

Trying to get reverse DNS working for local IP's. So far everything I have tried does not work.

I have a number of hosts listed in dnsmasq.conf.add

address=/dock.lan/dock/192.168.50.11

dig and nslookup will resolve 'dock' to '192.168.50.11' but will not resolve '192.168.50.11' to dock.

Is there any way to make reverse lookups work?

Try using dnsmasq host-record instead of address. It should create PTR records also.

Ahh thank you that seems to have fixed the issue.
