You update 128/25.217.142.62.in-addr.arpa.  SCI.FI doesn't need to do
anything more.  They have done the "one time" changes required to make
this work.

The rest of the world won't ask your servers about 217.142.62.in-addr.arpa
because the zone is NOT delegated to them.  They will be asked about
128/25.217.142.62.in-addr.arpa because that zone is delegated to them.
