Good a forum as any :) 

I was finally getting my DNS stuff set up (apologies to my customers for
taking so long) and I am having trouble delegating anything longer than 9th
level.

I get the following:

52 (iscserv) /iscserv/home2/rrockell  -> dig @v6-sol.sprintlink.net
9.2.e.f.f.3.ip6.int. axfr

; <<>> DiG 8.1 <<>> @v6-sol.sprintlink.net 9.2.e.f.f.3.ip6.int. axfr

so it seems to be working.

However, now when I try to delegate down a /48 of my customer's, the line
does not show up on a dig. I played with this, and it only seems to be
working with exactly one extra character (viewed as 9th level delegation by
dns).

for example

1.9.2.e.f.f.3.ip6.int would work, but
2.1.9.2.e.f.f.e.ip6.int would not

I dug around with some other v6 dns machines out there and it seems
that they run perfectly well. I even see PTR records out to /128!!!

If anyone has encountered this before, please let me know. I am hoping It is
not something silly that I simply forgot. Any help would be appreciated.

named.conf and zonefile attached
