That's normal. That's what A records are.

You can't hide DNS records. DNS is public information. Everyone can see it. 
If you don't want a host name published then don't publish it. But then 
NOBODY can find the host's IP address including your own users. It's all or 
nothing.

Get the DNS cricket book.

Get it. Read the first few chapters.
