Indeed, there is no way I would allow that either. But really, providing a reverse zone and forward zone to match is a case of five minutes and a shell script or a DNS that as Steinar said, will synthesise results.
It's really not all that difficult..
No, not at all. It's just totally pointless. Any IPv6 address is just as pretty as a synthesized name. Maybe even prettier. Do you prefer "2001:db8:1::2" or "20010db8000100000000000000000002.rev.example.com"?
If we're going to provide any reverse DNS for end users, then it is because we can create names which actually improves something.

Yup it is pointless.. Mine are all ipadrress.domain which is of course, pointless.. I suppose at least somebody would glean that perhaps its a home user rather than a business or server on that address but that's all. With IPv6 arguably even more pointless as you say. ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the MessageLabs Email Security System.
