I'm going to guess that you want reverse DNS for a network point to hosts
in different domains.

The boot file is set up as usual. An example zone file would look like
this:

$TTL	86400
$ORIGIN	0.168.192.in-addr.arpa.
@	SOA	ns.domain.example. hostmaster.domain.example.	(
		2000021301 28800 7200 604800 86400		)
	NS	ns.domain.example.
	NS	ns.isp.example.
1	PTR	host-1.domain.example.
2	PTR	host-2.domain.example.
3	PTR	host-1.domain2.example.
4	PTR	host-2.domain2.example.
5	PTR	host-1.domain3.example.
6	PTR	host-2.domain3.example.
