We recently ran into a similar problem. IPv6 has long been successfully black-listed but for a few days we were unable to use Etch to download a Debian Testing CD from the torrent because btdownloadcurses saw the bttracker.acc.umu.se AAAA record and died on something like "no route to host" without ever trying the A record. bttracker.acc.umu.se now (seems to) always return the A record before the AAAA record and btdownloadcurses works once more. FWIW, we do not have "options ipv6" in resolv.conf, but I don't see a way to say something like "options no-ipv6". --Mike Bird -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
