Any help would be great, Thanks

rDNS is automatically configured for your IPs based on the hostname that you provide for your virtual server.

Oh, what I meant was that I host my dns myself and I can’t get the reverse dns working, I don’t use digital oceans dns. <br>Sorry if my choice of words for my question wasn’t great!
