[Pdns-users] reverse dns creation

[Augie Schwer]

Here's an example from a production DB :

mysql> select * from domains where name like '%.in-addr.arpa' limit 1;
+-------+----------------------+--------+------------+--------+-----------------+---------+---------------------+
| id    | name                 | master | last_check | type   |
notified_serial | account | change_date         |
+-------+----------------------+--------+------------+--------+-----------------+---------+---------------------+
| 17168 | 0.0.127.IN-ADDR.ARPA |        | 1194994265 | NATIVE |
    NULL | NULL    | 0000-00-00 00:00:00 |
+-------+----------------------+--------+------------+--------+-----------------+---------+---------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> select * from records where domain_id = 17168;
+------------+-----------+------------------------+------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+--------+------+---------------------+
| id         | domain_id | name                   | type | content
