Ok, I checked the FAQ, should have done that in the first place and I see that
it says I should setup my own empty zone like this in my named.conf:
zone "168.192.IN-ADDR.ARPA" {
type master;
file "empty";
};
The faq then goes on to say:
empty:
@ 10800 IN SOA <name-of-server>. <contact-email>. (
1 3600 1200 604800 10800 )
@ 10800 IN NS <name-of-server>.
That is where I'm confused as to what to place in the <name-of server>, and so
forth. Using the example dig @prisoner.iana.org hostname.as112.net any, that
is shown at http://public.as112.net/node/7 I get:
; <<>> DiG 9.4.1 <<>> @prisoner.iana.org hostname.as112.net any
; (1 server found)

hostname.as112.net. 15 IN TXT "See http://as112.net/ for

hostname.as112.net. 15 IN TXT "Autonomica" "Stockholm,
Sweden"
;; ADDITIONAL SECTION:
blackhole-1.iana.org. 3600 IN A 192.175.48.6
So should this @ 10800 IN NS <name-of-server>. be "blackhole-1.isna.org"?
And this @ 10800 IN SOA <name-of-server>. <contact-email>
"rfc1918.sth.netnod.se"? And "hostmaster.netnod.se" as the contact-email? Or
am I misunderstanding how this is supposed to be written?
