/etc/gai.conf may be used to change precedence of IPv4 vs. IPv6; default it to favor IPv6. I run with IPv6 disabled since years (my provider does not offer IPv6 anyway) so I cannot test. I also am not sure whether this affects all glibc name resolution behavior or only specifically getaddrifo.
Well, I have just un-commented the line:
# For sites which prefer IPv4 connections change the last line to # precedence ::ffff:0:0/96 100
I don't know if anything else is necessary, everything is commented out in that file. But as I don't have problems with fetchmail, I can't say if this works. Patrick, please try this with IPv6 enabled ;-)
I uncommented the "precedence" line quoted above and restarted network, issued: echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/enp1s0/disable_ipv6 Confirmed via ifconfig that ipv6 was active and immediately saw failures in fetchmail to gmail. Issuing "echo 0 ..." returned functionality to fetchmail/gmail connection. Guess it "does not work for me" :) Or, I don't know how to properly use it (distinct possibility). Perhaps the "imap.gmail.com group of addresses" need to be added to /etc/gai.conf ??? Happy to test more if someone can give more guidance. tks, -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
