--host-record=<name>[,<name>....],[<IPv4-address>],[<IPv6-address>][,<TTL>]
Add A, AAAA and PTR records to the DNS. This adds one or more names to
the DNS with associated IPv4 (A) and IPv6 (AAAA) records. A name may
appear in more than one
--host-record
and therefore be assigned more than one address. Only the first
address creates a PTR record linking the address to the name. This is
the same rule as is used reading hosts-files.
--host-record
options are considered to be read before host-files, so a name
appearing there inhibits PTR-record creation if it appears in
hosts-file also. Unlike hosts-files, names are not expanded, even when
--expand-hosts
is in effect. Short and long names may appear in the same
--host-record,
eg.
--host-record=laptop,laptop.thekelleys.org,192.168.0.1,1234::100
If the time-to-live is given, it overrides the default, which is zero
or the value of --local-ttl. The value is a positive integer and gives
the time-to-live in seconds.
