So if I want the Reverse
$GENERATE 0-255 $ PTR 67.65.247.$.duracom.net.
to be the "Standard" format I need, do I set my forward like this:
$GENERATE 0-255 67.65.247.$ A
OR
$GENERATE 0-255 67.65.247.$ A 67.65.246.$
Thanks,

Your general approach is right, but the forward and reverse naming
schemes don't match. In the forward domain, the names are
###.sb247.duracom.net
but in the reverse domain they're
67.65.247.###.duracom.net
You need to pick one naming convention and use it in both places.
