I think you want to be setting up:

c.c.f.3.2.7.e.f.f.f.0.2.0.0.a.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.8.e.f.f.3.ip6.int

( note additional 'f.3.' before 'ip6.int' )

kre (Robert Elz) is the contact for munnari, as divulged by:

	host -t txt e.f.f.3.ip6.int | grep munnari

A lot of ip6.int zones apparently hosted at munnari are not served by
munnari (see both kre and bill manning for this).

Whois.apnic.net is not currently authoritative for any IPv4 address that
munnari is bound to.
