That's what IBM would call a "feature". I assumed as much, but
somehow could not get the "ptr" queries to work. Maybe it's just
the SOA record I have trouble with (that is, defining the "zone",
which from the above I assume is largely implicit) or, more likely,
the actual way delegations take place.
It's all quite muddled in my mind. I'll see if I can rephrase my
problem more clearly. As I'm about to rearrange my network, this
is a good time for me to get more familiar with the network database.
