        Every address should have a PTR which gives the cannonical name
        of the host which in turn has a matching address record.

        It is a bad idea to say for the to be a PTR for every ownername
        of a address record.  It doesn't take too many A records, which
        all have the same address, before you exceed the DNS protocol
        limits with multiple PTR records.
