Problems arise if the name server (whomever supplies it) returns that AAAA record but cannot resolve the IPv6 entity. Then the request times out causing all the problems you see in the Forums, etc.
Look, if I ask my default server I get: cer@Telcontar:~> host download.opensuse.org download.opensuse.org has address 195.135.221.134 download.opensuse.org has IPv6 address 2001:67c:2178:8::13 cer@Telcontar:~> If I ask google, I get: cer@Telcontar:~> host download.opensuse.org 8.8.8.8 Using domain server: Name: 8.8.8.8 Address: 8.8.8.8#53 Aliases: download.opensuse.org has address 195.135.221.134 download.opensuse.org has IPv6 address 2001:67c:2178:8::13 cer@Telcontar:~> The answer is the same, in both cases I get the IPv6 address - and my network is not IPv6 capable. I still do not see how using the google dns can help me. I want an answer that does not include that IPv6 address in the response, because if I get it, YaST tries it when IPv4 fails. I need yast to fail when the IPv4 address fails. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
