	Because classless in-addr.arpa requires support from the parent
	zone.  Both zones need to be setup, 1.168.192.in-addr.arpa in
	this case.

	In the 1.168.192.in-addr.arpa the following is required.

	96-111 NS pub.domain.com.
	96 CNAME 96.96-111
	97 CNAME 97.96-111
	...
	111 CNAME 111.96-111

	In the 96-111.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa there are the appropriate
	PTR records.

	@ SOA ...
	@ NS pub.domain.com.
	96 PTR ...
	...
	111 PTR ...
