This might be more support-related, but has anyone set up delegated
reverse DNS for IPv6 with "all-knowing-dns"?
It handles PTR and AAAA records on the fly and lets me avoid doing the
whole zone-file thingy. But I'm uncertain about this bit :
"Please bear in mind that the zone
e.f.2.f.1.f.1.0.8.a.b.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa should already exist on all the
nameservers you list."
Can I use "all-knowing-dns" as an easy fix?

Description-en: tiny DNS server for IPv6 Reverse DNS
AllKnowingDNS provides reverse DNS for IPv6 networks which use SLAAC
(autoconf), e.g. for a /64 network.
.
The problem with IPv6 reverse DNS and traditional nameservers is that the
nameserver requires you to provide a zone file. Assuming you want to
provide
RDNS for a /64 network, you have 2**64 = 18446744073709551616
different usable
IP addresses (a little less if you are using SLAAC). Providing a zone
file for
that, even in a very terse notation, would consume a huge amount of
disk space
and could not possibly be held in the memory of the computers available
nowadays.
.
AllKnowingDNS instead generates PTR and AAAA records on the fly. You only
configure which network you want to serve and what your entries should
look
like.
