So far as I can make out, the zone 64/26.78.15.64.in-addr.arpa. is
delegated to your nameserver. You need to set up the records such that
the zone is 64/26.78.15.64.in-addr.arpa and the host is 66. How you do
this depends on your database schema, but it is no different to how you
would set up a zone parcometre.ca with a host ns1, or a host @.
