Hi,

When I ping my domain name, I get the following response:

64 bytes from li-375-XX.members.linode.com (96.126.XX.XX): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.044 ms

Is there any way to show my domain name instead? Vanity...

Thanks.

Set your domain name as the reverse dns. You can do it in the admin panel.

Linode Manager > Dashboard > Remote Access tab, to be more precise, just make sure you have a forward facing A record before you try setting RDNS.

I already have RDNS set up. However, I am not sure I understand the "forward facing A record" part.

Thanks.

OK. I figured out what the problem was... I was pinging from my linode and I didn't have properly configure hostname and /etc/hosts.

Thanks.
