I guess that is not what you want to do. If you want to resolve an IPv6 address by using a name server 8.8.8.8 via IPv4, the following should be enough: # host 2001:5c0:1000:b::599b 8.8.8.8 The two options -4 and -6 are useful when the name server is specified as a domain name which has both A and AAAA RR. -- Hiroki
