Hi,

I only know this for our region, which is operated by RIPE. Maybe ARIN or any 
other RIR offers the same possibility.
Here you can do it by allocating this particular /26 to a customers net in the 
RIPE-DB. If allocated you can set the corresponding rdns-servers at RIPE.
My personal point of view for this is that I wouldn't let the customer manage 
his own rdns. I also never saw a provider which allows this to his customers. 
Sure, there will be some out in the world but I never saw it in any situation 
concerning me or my job.
To explain why I wouldn't allow it: rdns is (in my personal opinion!) a very 
authortative thing. IMHO it's the only thing you can at least trust a little 
bit. Due to the fact that rdns is quite statical, changes are not needed very 
often and could be done by these persons which operate the zone for this 
customer.

Greetings from Switzerland
