Really? I think the delegations are there now. I re-checked the
situation this evening and now we have a couple of newborn
...arpa. zones. Here's an example:
% dig 4.f.f.b.8.0.e.f.f.f.d.2.2.0.2.0.2.5.0.0.0.1.3.0.8.0.7.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa. ptr @ns.sun.com

The host whose address was queried is the host I am using now. The
...ip6.arpa. zone just points to the same file as the corresponding
...ip6.int. zone. There still seems to problem with nac.no not having
a delegation to our /48 (0.1.3.0.8.0.7.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa.) but I
