I may be wrong, but I was not aware that you could have multiple PTR records for a single IP address. I have always used Zone file contains: IN NS hostname.domainname.TLD. hostname IN A 1.2.3.4 ; glue record as is in our own domain aliasname IN CNAME hostname.domainname.TLD. alias2 IN CNAME hostname.domainname.TLD. the hostname in SOA is always one of the NS records in rev.4.3.2 1 IN PTR hostname.domainname.TLD.
