IPv6 DNS server and tspc client setting

[<kmlhk79-ipv6@yahoo.com.hk>]

Dear Josh :

Thanks for the info, but under what situtation I need
to do that? 

In both cases, (leave it blank or not) I have to
configure my DNS server(bind9) to have PTR record for
reverse DNS .

Why I need to specify it in my tspc.conf ? There are
no gain to do that.

Any idea ?
