Package: libc6
Version: 2.7-6
Severity: normal
Since one of the last updates I noticed my system stoppend using ipv6.
I seam to have tracked that problem down to the new RFC3484 and
/etc/gai.conf functionality...
Actual situation, local machine:
eth2 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:13:ce:36:7f:f5
inet addr:157.161.57.67 Bcast:157.161.57.79 Mask:255.255.255.240
inet6 addr: fec0::213:ceff:fe36:7ff5/64 Scope:Site
inet6 addr: 2002:5448:894d:0:213:ceff:fe36:7ff5/64 Scope:Global
inet6 addr: fe80::213:ceff:fe36:7ff5/64 Scope:Link
Trying to connect to any IPv6 host not on the local network:
~$ telnet gintonic.woody.ch
Trying 157.161.57.2...
Trying 2001:4060:dead:beef:213:d3ff:fea8:8ef8...
Why is IPv4 being prefered? As I understand if both is possivle, IPv6 should be prefered.
Same test from a 'etch' machine in same subnet:
ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13etch4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries
# telnet gintonic.woody.ch
Trying 2001:4060:dead:beef:213:d3ff:fea8:8ef8...
Trying 157.161.57.2...
That's the order I expect.
