Unable to change Reverse DNS

Hi all,

Currently I'm trying to change the reverse DNS name and it's not allowing me to. It keeps giving me an error saying, "We were unable to perform a lookup for 'example.linode.com' at this time." Would anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks!

You need to provide a name that has an A or AAAA record that points to one of your Linode's IPv4 or IPv6 addresses, respectively, that you wish to change the reverse DNS for. For example, if I wanted to set 192.0.2.1's reverse DNS to linode.example.com, linode.example.com would need to have an A record for 192.0.2.1.
