Hello guys. (I hope this is the right place to ask, otherwise pls. advise me accordingly.)

I have this problem on my ipv6 network and dns setup and i'll appreciate any input to help me resolve this. My question is: If i point to a subdomain (ex. ipv6.google.com <http://ipv6.google.com>), how do i resolve to its ipv6 address by default?

To explain further, if I do 'dig' with AAAA RR, it will resolve correctly as expected.

$ dig @my-dns-server ipv6.google.com <http://ipv6.google.com> AAAA +short
gives
2001:4860:c004::68

However, if i do 'ping6 ipv6.google.com <http://ipv6.google.com>', it cannot resolve the address.
Try the dig without @my-dns-server. That'll give you a better baseline comparison to how ordinary commands like "ping6" resolve DNS from that box.

Also, if you have control of my-dns-server, turn on query logging (if not already turned on) and see if you're actually getting AAAA queries for ipv6.google.com from the client.

Alternatively, fire up a sniffer or network tracer of some kind.
