I found DNS lookup by host or dig fails if (1) kernel is built without "options INET6" and (2) DNS server has both v4 and v6 address.
% host -t ns kame.net kame.net name server orange.kame.net kame.net name server ns1.itojun.org % host orange.kame.net orange.kame.net has address 203.178.141.194 orange.kame.net has address 2001:200:0:8002:203:47ff:fea5:3085 % host orange.kame.net orange.kame.net Using domain server: Name: orange.kame.net Addresses: 2001:200:0:8002:203:47ff:fea5:3085 203.178.141.194 Host not found, try again. % dig @orange.kame.net orange.kame.net ; <<>> DiG 8.3 <<>> @orange.kame.net orange.kame.net ; (2 servers found) ;; res options: init recurs defnam dnsrch ;; res_nsend to server orange.kame.net 2001:200:0:8002:203:47ff:fea5:3085: Protocol not supported % This happens on both 4.8R and 5.1R. What's wrong with this failure? Bug of FreeBSD or any configuration error of my machines? --- KIMURA Yasuhiro Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] WWW: http://www.utahime.org/ _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
