I've been pondering IPv6 setups, and I don't understand how IPv6 rDNS
is supposed to work.  It's clear enough how you look up any particular
address, but it's not at all clear to me what you put into an rDNS
zone and how you put it there.


We've already discussed this in April, and answers came to a line of "use
dynamic
updates" to "not necessary".

Problems lay around table sizes, unnecessary PTR records created, and large
end-user blocks.

There are other useful tips too, including ideas for PowerDNS and Bind.
