i don't get the ptr problem. My internal sites already have ptr records. My dns server sits facing the internet. Ptr records too.

But yes. If u have a domain that is supposed to resolve different depending on the source ip that'd be..interesting... Now u need a website that displays different content depending on source ip or something like that...

If your machine is pointing to doh on the Internet, how does a reverse lookup for an rfc1918 address work?

One issue with doh is that it’s inconsistent - some applications use one resolver, some use another. The network (via dhcp) can’t hint at which resolver to use.
