Don't worry about disabling IPv6. The actual problem is that your DNS resolver is sending out a AAAA query before the A query, and since the AAAA query is getting a response, it's trying to use that. The easier workaound is to tell your resolver to do A queries first, instead of AAAA queries.
You want to edit /etc/gai.conf (gai = Get Address Info, since I know you like to disambiguate). http://askubuntu.com/questions/32298/prefer-a-ipv4-dns-lookups-before-aaaaipv6-lookups On Mon, Jan 13, 2014 at 4:46 PM, Howard White <[email protected]> wrote: > On 01/13/2014 04:37 PM, Howard White wrote: > >> >> This link is particularly confusing: >> <www.hosting.com/support/linux/how-to-disable-ipv6-for-redhat-and-centos/> >> >> "append at the end of the {/etc/modprobe.conf} file: >> install ipv6 /bin/true" >> >> That disables ipv6???? >> > > No it doesn't, thank you very much as /etc/modprobe.conf is depricated in > CentOS 6.
