Bug#420301: libc6: IPv6 transport fails for resolver
Hello, > strace output might help to diagnose this. Thanks for the tip, I should have thought of it. I just realized my problem... the 'host' package does not support IPv6 transport. After fully debugging the issue with other tools, I found that things are working fine. Please close this bug, sorry for the trouble. thanks, tim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

When I've tried using it, my resolv.conf looks like: -=-=-=-=-=- #options inet6 search sentinelchicken.org nameserver 2002:CFAC:5504:2::0 =-=-=-=-=-= (Of course, I've tried with the options line uncommented as well.) I have not modified my nsswitch.conf from its default, and it contains: -=-=-=-=-=- # /etc/nsswitch.conf # # Example configuration of GNU Name Service Switch functionality. # If you have the `glibc-doc' and `info' packages installed, try: # `info libc "Name Service Switch"' for information about this file. passwd: compat group: compat shadow: compat hosts: files dns networks: files protocols: db files services: db files ethers: db files rpc:db files netgroup: nis =-=-=-=-=-= Is there anything I can do to debug this directly on my system? I don't see anything in my system logs, which I didn't really expect to. thanks, tim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Bug#420301: libc6: IPv6 transport fails for resolver
Package: libc6 Version: 2.5-2 Severity: normal Hello, When I specify an IPv6 address as my nameserver, resolution fails instantly and a packet trace reveals no traffic. For instance if I specify only: nameserver 2002:CFAC:5504:2::0 in /etc/resolv.conf, no queries go out. Not sure if this is a glibc compile-time option to disable this feature, but I'm pretty sure that glibc has supported IPv6 transport on resolution since version 2.2. Using the dig command directly (with the -6 option) of course allows me to use IPv6 as transport, so I know v6 routing and other config is set up right. I have tried this with both 'options inet6' on and off.
