I don't get an "ANSWER SECTION" part of the response to a 'dig -x' cmd for the reverse lookup for IPV6 addresses. I do for IPV4. Is the format of the reverse ipv6 not correct? Webmin automatically gen's the green and will not allow the blue data below to be entered (complains of invalid data when attempting to save). I'd assume this green format is correct (since the webmin util gen'd it), but the 'dig -x' does not return an "ANSWER" section. Shouldn't it? or is this normal? The green seems to be a mix of two formats, the full fwd ipv6 address and appended with the partial reverse arpa data) all the forward lookups seem to be fine (for both ipv4 and ipv6). Should I direct my questions to webmin community? thx, ice.burge Shouldn't the reverse table entry contain the following: [ 2.5.0.0.1.1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.a.0.0.0.6.d.f.0.ip6.arpa ] and not the following: [ :0fd6:000a:0000:0000:0000:0000:0011:0052.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.a.0.0.0.6.d.f.0 .ip6.arpa. ] from Fedore Linux 7 install and webmin 1.441 BIND version 9.4.0, from "BIND DNS Server" within Webmin, went to "module config" and set IPV6 to yes, applied changes. created (fwd) domain se070.com created (rev) domain 10.11.11.0 created (rev) domain fd6:a::/64 assigned dns address 10.11.11.52 and 'yes' to rev update. noted new entry in reverse table [ 52.11.11.10.in-addr.arpa. ] assigned dns address 10.11.11.52 and 'yes' to rev update. noted new entry in reverse table [ :0fd6:000a:0000:0000:0000:0000:0011:0052.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.a.0.0.0.6.d.f.0 .ip6.arpa. ] from root, I type in: =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- [r...@a024 bryce]# dig -x fd6:a::11:52 ; <<>> DiG 9.4.0 <<>> -x fd6:a::11:52 ;; global options: printcmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NXDOMAIN, id: 1342 ;; flags: qr aa rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 1, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;2.5.0.0.1.1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.a.0.0.0.6.d.f.0.ip6.arp a.
