The setting up rDNS on the one server would only be for that local server. All other servers that are not using the one local server for DNS resolution would look to your provider. You would either have to 1) get your provider to delegate rDNS to you, 2) duplicate the rDNS setup on the additional servers, or 3) point DNS (resolv.conf) to the one server that is working locally. Without your provider delegating rDNS to you, the "rest of the world" would still be looking to your provider for rDNS, regardless. -- If at first you don't succeed... ...so much for skydiving.
