The process of configuring a reverse DNS for a user depends on what colocation provider the user is with.
Also, note that whilst the DTC control panel has an option to set the rDNS there, this reports a small error to the user asking them to submit a support ticket.
If there are any existing entries on a certain IP address, feel free to remove them.
