Test for DNS PTR

Hello Hostmon Team,

would it be possible to have a DNS Test with additional Request Type PTR?
Pls let us know, if you can implement in a near future?

Thank you & Regards

If you are using HostMonitor 10.70, there is update for you
(unzip and replace hostmon.exe module)

Hello Alex
thank you - I upgraded to Version 10.70 and applied your FIX (hostmon.exe 10.0.70.1472).
But in the DNS Test I still see request types: A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, NS, TXT, SPF
How to test a PTR record (IP address to hostname lookup)?

e.g.
request PTR Test for IP 97.130.200.85

result: PTR name: 85.200.130.97.in-addr.arpa
ptrdname: mail.xxxxberlin.de

Thank you for any advise
regards

sorry Alex..

just find it - when starting App directly - NOT as Service.
So that means we need to wait for next update to manage this via Service and rcc

thanX
