Search Again: Re: IPv6 and QuickDNS From: Thierry Almy Date: Monday, July 1, 2002 Time: 11:11:16 pm Hi I just joined the list because we have got a serious problem related to IPv6 nic.ch added two IPv6 resource records in its DNS: merapi.switch.ch. 86400 IN AAAA 2001:620:0:1:a00:20ff:fe88:a3f8 merapi.switch.ch. 86400 IN A6 0 2001:620:0:1:a00:20ff:fe88:a3f8 Since then our Primary DNS (QuickDNS 3.5.3 on OS9) doesn't interpret requests anymore ... The name of our Primary is "ns.netfactory.ch" and it fails when looking up the name "nic.ch" or "switch.ch" This wouldn't be a big problem for us, but QuickDNS looks up the nic.ch-servers to make it's zone transfer with the SecondaryDNS .... So since they added the IPv6 records we can't make zone transfers anymore ! Is there a fix planned for this or do I have to switch my DNS to another product ? (I really like QuickDNS) Thanks for any help Thierry >I don't have an answer for you, other than, "Not now."
