	Remember your customer should want to transfer this zone
	as it is required for local reverse lookups to work when
	his external link to your servers is down.  You might
	get some brownie points by recomending that he slave this
	zone.
 
	The customer should have something like:

	zone "81.213.209.in-addr.arpa" {
		type slave;
		notify no;
		masters { 209.213.64.2; 209.213.72.9; 209.213.80.9; };
		file "81.213.209.in-addr.arpa";
	};
	
	zone "144-28.81.213.209.in-addr.arpa" {
		type master;
		file "144-28.81.213.209.in-addr.arpa";
	};
