Hello,

About two weeks ago I went from a CD install of 4.2 to a cvsup'd 4.3-RC with source to (hopefully) get FreeBSD to prefer/default to IPv6 addresses first instead of IPv4.

Most was solved with the upgrade, but I have one lingering issue. If I put a IPv6 address in my /etc/resolv.conf,
it is ignored, and "jumps" over to the second (IPv4) entry. Can anyone explain this to me ?

Here's the basics:

# uname -a
FreeBSD lab3v4.eln-research.nl 4.3-RC FreeBSD 4.3-RC #0: Fri Apr 13 10:43:44
CEST 2001     root@lab3v4.eln-research.nl:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  i386

# cat /etc/resolv.conf

domain  eln-research.nl
nameserver      2001:610:1408:201:a00:20ff:fe79:2214
nameserver      195.169.102.73
nameserver      195.169.102.195

Thanx for any help,
Tim Ehrhart
