reverse dns resolve in docker about skydock HOT 6 CLOSED

Interesting requests. No Skydock doesn't do this because SkyDNS doesn't. I think it makes sense to add this to SkyDNS2 (for v4 and v6), and the algorithm would be: check locally for a reverse and if not found forward it to the recursor.

@miekg In my opinion, reverse DNS lookup is part of DNS features. Some services use reverse DNS to double check the source of request. So, it is an valid request.
Hope this feature will come soon!

I will probaly implement something like this as it is not hard to do so. But I
do think your overstating the importance of the reverse tree, esp. in light
with IPv6.
