>>Should look like this:
>>ipa dnsrecord-add 22.168.192.in-addr.arpa 4 --ptr-rec rhel6.mysandbox.com.

Does the first part need a trailing "." after arpa? I saw something (https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1129) that looked like what I got when I pasted what you provided into a terminal. However, when I added a "." on the end of arpa and removed it from mysandbox.com".", I got:

  Record name: 4
  PTR record: rhel6.mysandbox.com., rhel6.mysandbox.com


Even so, when I try to do:

[root at rhel6 ~]# host 192.168.22.4
Host 4.22.168.192.in-addr.arpa. not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)


Thanks for having a look!

Tim
