They could, if they kept a list of forward lookups they had done to get IPs
that ended up in their blacklists. But just having the IPs it's impossible to
get the whole list of possible hostnames that point at it (reverse records are
singular, and often missing).
Nonetheless, it'd be nice to know how a single IP got onto the list - and what
Cogent's doing about situations where multiple other hostnames map onto the
same ip.
I have clietns that are Cogent customers, I'd just like to get informed before
I bring the hammer down.
