I think the delegations are there now. I re-checked the situation this evening and now we have a couple of newborn ...arpa. zones. Here's an example: % dig 4.f.f.b.8.0.e.f.f.f.d.2.2.0.2.0.2.5.0.0.0.1.3.0.8.0.7.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa. ptr @ns.sun.com ; <<>> DiG 9.2.0 <<>> 4.f.f.b.8.0.e.f.f.f.d.2.2.0.2.0.2.5.0.0.0.1.3.0.8.0.7.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa. ptr @ns.sun.com ;; global options: printcmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 28299 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 1, ADDITIONAL: 1 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;4.f.f.b.8.0.e.f.f.f.d.2.2.0.2.0.2.5.0.0.0.1.3.0.8.0.7.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa.

The ...ip6.arpa. zone just points to the same file as the corresponding ...ip6.int. zone. There still seems to problem with nac.no not having a delegation to our /48 (0.1.3.0.8.0.7.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa.) but I > I guess RIPE is the chicken and the ranges are eggs. No pun intended :p I guess this means that the eggs have hatched and now we have lots of little chickens. -- Heikki Vatiainen * [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tampere University of Technology * Tampere, Finland
