(Presuming, of course, that you've got an ARIN assignment
or allocation.  If you're in a provider-assigned block,
you'll need to chat with your ISP about the DS linkage
for your PTR zones...  /John )

I guess I get to dig some more. Thanks.

Eric -

Your in-addr zone first needs to be signed and then the DS
records are put in the parent in-addr zone to link into the
signed IN-ADDR.ARPA hierarchy.   In the ARIN region, this can
be done via the DNSSEC DS record management in ARIN Online or
via the RESTful provisioning interface.

Thank you. That gives me information to work with, and I now have a solid understanding of what I need to do for the 
proper delegation setup. I'll have to talk to my current ISP for the blocks I currently have, though I don't believe 
they do dnssec at this time. I am expecting to get an Arin allocation shortly (and return their existing allocations to 
us) as we are going multihomed soon. I may just have to wait till then to get everything fully setup.
