Hello
It worked for me. I did exactly same as for forward zone.
###################################
ls -l /var/named/dynamic


-rw-r--r-- 1 named named  619 Mar 28 22:52 168.192.in-addr.arpa.zone
-rw-r--r-- 1 named named 2174 Mar 28 22:39 168.192.in-addr.arpa.zone.jnl



########################
# The reverse zone configuration is optional.  The following example assumes a
# subnet of 192.168.123.0/24:


zone "168.192.in-addr.arpa" in {
        type master;
        file "dynamic/168.192.in-addr.arpa.zone";
check-names ignore;

        update-policy {

                grant *.INC wildcard *.9.168.192.in-addr.arpa. PTR;
                grant *.INC wildcard *.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa. PTR;
        };
};

No idea about the BIND stuff, but in principle if there's a reverse
zone in DNS, the windows clients will try to update that when updating
their forward entry. Sans TKEY/TSIG, I've seen this working just fine
with the internal DNS. I see no reason why it shouldn't work with BIND.

Cheers,
Kai
