[SSHFP?]Once I have a DNS server that can handle the relevant RRs, [...]It would appear that you can use BIND 9 for this today, by taking advantage of the representation for unknown RRtypes defined in RFC3597.Thanks for the pointer to 3597...but until a type value is assigned, even 3597 format isn't much use. dns-05 says "The RR type code for the SSHFP RR is TBA.".
I went looking for an "experimental" value, and failed to find one, which is not too surprising given the limited namespace. However, what I did find is that IANA has apparently already assigned a value for SSHFP. The IANA registry at http://www.iana.org/assignments/dns-parameters says the correct value is 44.
