I'm having a problem configuring a delegation. We have various /24s for
which we provide PTR records. If I create a zone file for
188.134.63.in-addr.arpa and add PTR records, they resolve just fine. In
other words, if this is my zone, I can resolve 63.134.188.13:
$TTL 6h
@ 345600 IN SOA dauth1.joink.com. noc.joink.com. (
2009121524 ; Serial number
86400 ; Refresh
3600 ; Retry
777600 ; Expire
3600 ) ; Minimum TTL
IN NS dauth1.joink.com.
IN NS dauth2.joink.com.
13 IN PTR midwest1st.com.
But that isn't what we want to do for this particular zone. We want to
delegate all queries concerning 188.134.63.in-addr.arpa to
ns1.midwestfirst.com and ns2.midwestfirst.com. Albitz & Liu 4th says that's
fair game, so here's how I configured the zone:
$TTL 6h
@ 345600 IN SOA dauth1.joink.com. noc.joink.com. (
2009121524 ; Serial number
86400 ; Refresh
3600 ; Retry
777600 ; Expire
3600 ) ; Minimum TTL
IN NS ns1.midwestfirst.com.
IN NS ns2.midwestfirst.com.
Mutatis mutandis, that's the configuration that Albitz & Liu show for
delegating forward lookup zones (p. 232). It isn't quite how they show
reverse lookup zones (more on this in a moment), and unfortunately, it
doesn't work:

As I said, this isn't quite how Albitz & Liu show delegation for reverse
lookup zones. Nevertheless, the only difference that I see between what I
have configured and what they show is that I'm working with
188.134.63.in-addr.arpa, while they're working one level higher, at the
equivalent of 134.63.in-addr.arpa. Accordingly, they have to specify name
servers for 188 within the zone, whereas I can (I had thought) inhereit that
data from the zone. Maybe not, though, since it isn't working!
I even tried adding the "generate" command that they propose:
$TTL 6h
@ 345600 IN SOA dauth1.joink.com. noc.joink.com. (
2009121526 ; Serial number
86400 ; Refresh
3600 ; Retry
777600 ; Expire
3600 ) ; Minimum TTL
IN NS ns1.midwestfirst.com.
IN NS ns2.midwestfirst.com.
$GENERATE 1-255 IN NS ns1.midwestfirst.com.
$GENERATE 1-255 IN NS ns2.midwestfirst.com.
But no dice:

What really baffles me is that this worked for several hours yesterday, and
apparently quit overnight. One option is just to change the delegation at
ARIN, but we want to avoid that and in any event I'd like to know what the
issue is. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?
