Re: DNAME support
isn't DNAME a keyword used only in .arpa requests? Because as far as i
remember .arpa in libc was broken at the time we were asking Ben Collins
to s/arpa/int/g to let application resolv ipv6 correctly.
I remember from the tests I made at that time the libc was able to send
correctly both .int and .arpa requests to the dns but it was not able
to understand .arpa answers.
Dunno if this is still the situation.
