>Description:
kernel has INET6 commented out, thus no ipv6 support, yet:
host -d -v -t ns sgh.waw.pl. dns.nask.pl.
Using domain server:
Name: a.nask.pl
Addresses: 2001:a10:1:1::44 195.187.245.44
;; res_nmkquery(QUERY, sgh.waw.pl, IN, NS)
;; res_send()
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 30947
;; flags: rd; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0
;; sgh.waw.pl, type = NS, class = IN
;; Querying server (# 1) address = 2001:a10:1:1::44
res_send: socket(dg): Protocol not supported
res_nsend failed
Host not found, try again.
resolver should not even see that "dns.nask.pl" has ipv6 address, not mentioning trying it, but even if it tries it, why it does not continue to ask v4 (which of course works)?
>How-To-Repeat:
undefine INET6 from kernel config
>Fix:
not a fix, but a workaround: define INET6 in kernel config
fix would need to be done in sources
