Thanks Reindl. I haven't investigated ipv6 properly, but looking at my Hosting provider's wiki and a few of my config files, it seems ipv6 is available (I have been assigned an ipv6 subnet). I have something like this: http://wiki.hetzner.de/index.php/Netzkonfiguration_Debian/en#Dedicated_Servers_3
I'd rather not turn ipv6 off, but I'll need to investigate further to see why it isn't working (with bind9 at least). Thanks for the tip about unbound.
