Because people could        FU> still find my ipv6 AAAA record on my ipv4-only nameservers...              Don't confuse the accesability with the content of name servers. Most name       servers that are accesible by IPv4 only do respond with an AAAA record when       that is present for the requested host.              But of course we should all prepare to function in an IPv6 only environment,       so the use of name servers that are accesable via IPv6 is much preferred.                     Cheers, Michiel              --- GoldED+/W32-MSVC 1.1.5-b20170303        * Origin: he.net certified sage (2:280/5555)       SEEN-BY: 19/10 90/1 103/705 104/117 105/81 106/201 124/5016 128/187       SEEN-BY: 153/757 7715 154/10 30 203/0 218/700 221/0 226/30 227/114       SEEN-BY: 229/110 114 206 317 400 426 428 470 550 616 664 700 240/1120       SEEN-BY: 240/5832 250/1 266/512 280/464 5003 5006 5555 282/1038 291/111       SEEN-BY: 292/854 8125 301/1 310/31 320/219 322/757 341/66 234 342/200       SEEN-BY: 396/45 423/120 460/58 467/888 633/267 280 281 410 412 418       SEEN-BY: 633/420 509 2744 712/848 770/1 902/26 5019/40 5020/400 545       SEEN-BY: 5020/1042 5053/58 5075/35       PATH: 280/5555 464 633/280 229/426           |
