Hi all
Noticed the rDNS for my static reveals my username which isn't what i'd want.
Can this be changed to either adsb.2e0veb.com or something random?
Thanks

@2E0VEB there are two possibilities for a change to the rDNS
1) it can be changed to <ip address>.plus.com
2) if you own a domain and can change DNS. Then provided you create a forward A record, then rDNS can be changed to that. So if you can create the A record for adsb.2e0veb.com pointing to your static IP then the rDNS can be changed to that.
I'm sure a staff member will be along shortly and then will either send a PM or raise a ticket for you to reply with details.
Superusers are not staff, but they do have a direct line of communication into the business in order to raise issues, concerns and feedback from the community.

Thank you.
Already have the domain and sub pointing at this IP address. These are A+ Dynamic records due to the former ISP only allocating a dynamic ip address.
So the link is already there - and working! Mind you, if i do add an additional "A" record, i'll then have to suss out how to make that work with nginx. Am ok if it doesnt resolve to a host for now and can pick the rest us when time allows.
Alternatively, happy for it just to be the ip addy .plus.com - that said, i'd probably recommend that as the default to Plusnet as it is a little invasive for people to be sharing their username without being aware!

In that case you just need to wait for a staff member to pick this up. They'll confirm the details and then raise the request to NetOps to do the change.

Hi @2E0VEB I've raised a task to Netops for you, that should get picked up within the next few days.
