I think it must be something on your DNS server's end. You don't need to do anything unusual to Debian to make it ask for AAAA records. Which ping6 are you using? Are you using the one from iputils-ping or the unofficial hacked up netkit ping6? If you still can't get it going, you may wish to use tcpdump and/or ethereal to look at what requests and replies are going over the wire. Ask for help with that if you need it. noah -- _______________________________________________________ | Web: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/ | PGP Public Key: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/mail.html
