That's what you get with a wildcard PTR record, e.g. *.0.0.0.0.e.d.0.c.d.a.b.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa. IN PTR whatevername.your-domain. would return "whatevername.your-domain." as a PTR record whenever an otherwise-nonexistent PTR record in the 0.0.0.0.e.d.0.c.d.a.b.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa. zone was queried for. > It probably does not play well with DNSSEC [...] Oh, it does. This is what the "labels" field in the RRSIG record is for, ref. https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4034.html#page-8 Regards, - Håvard -- Visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list ISC funds the development of this software with paid support subscriptions.
