Follow-up to #16.

  • The mail server node showed only the address on all three hosts: dns.reverse returns [] inside the image although the resolver answers the PTR. resolvePtr on the in-addr.arpa / ip6.arpa name returns it (checked: 95.216.2.52 and 2a01:4f9:2a:264::25 give mx2.inbuxa.com, 157.180.98.170 gives mail.inbuxa.com).
  • About now shows the hostname alone (John), the address only when there is no PTR.

Server tests 271/271 (new ptrName test, IPv4 and IPv6), web 1423/1423, typecheck clean. No new strings.

dns.reverse came back empty inside the image while the resolver answered
the PTR, so About showed only the address. Ask for the PTR record of the
in-addr.arpa / ip6.arpa name directly.

The address is only shown when the node has no PTR record.
