There are rules for internet hosts, that they should have A and PTR

spelled out)
That's because it isn't spelled out in any RFC I'm aware of.
draft-ietf-dnsop-inaddr-required-07.txt is the one you'll be looking for.
Despite the draft name, it does NOT say "PTR required" - that got beaten
out of the document pretty early. Instead, it talks about what they're good
for and why you might want to install them.
