But this (the traffic between ipv4 and ipv6 backbones) has to be handled transparently by your carrier. > May 3 21:29:53 tony-lx named[1985]: error (FORMERR) resolving > 'telegraph.nestoria.co.uk/AAAA/IN': 178.250.72.132#53 > May 3 21:29:53 tony-lx named[1985]: DNS format error from 178.250.74.132#53 > resolving telegraph.nestoria.co.uk/AAAA for client 192.168.1.105#56959: > invalid response Mmm, there should be no need for that, I mean, bind9 can be configured to don't use ipv6... this is what I get in lenny when daemon starts: syslog.1:May 4 07:18:51 stt005 named[2382]: loading configuration from '/etc/bind/named.conf' syslog.1:May 4 07:18:51 stt005 named[2382]: using default UDP/IPv4 port range: [1024, 65535] syslog.1:May 4 07:18:51 stt005 named[2382]: using default UDP/IPv6 port range: [1024, 65535] syslog.1:May 4 07:18:51 stt005 named[2382]: no IPv6 interfaces found syslog.1:May 4 07:18:51 stt005 named[2382]: listening on IPv4 interface lo, 127.0.0.1#53 syslog.1:May 4 07:18:51 stt005 named[2382]: listening on IPv4 interface eth0, 192.168.0.5#53 And I did nothing to disable ipv6 here (in fact, I can see it's enabled at "/etc/bind/named.conf.options" → listen-on-v6 { any; };" , but still bind9 does this by its own. > Commenting out the ipv6 entry in hosts fixed that. And that's strange because if you are using a local dns resolver, the "hosts" file shouldn't be queried to resolve external domains :-? >> Mmm, then there must be something at a lower layer, I mean, maybe is >> that you have disabled the whole ipv6 support at the kernel. >> >> I can see my two interfaces are getting an ipv6 address: (...) >> And (from my Lenny): >> >> sm01@stt008:~$ lsmod|grep ipv6 >> ipv6 288456 26 >> > Neither of those provokes a response here. That can mean you have disabled ipv6, system-wide. Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
