Without torsocks nc(1) can't perform this request too. $ nc ipv6.test-ipv6.com 80 ipv6.test-ipv6.com: forward host lookup failed: Unknown host $ host ipv6.test-ipv6.com ipv6.test-ipv6.com has IPv6 address 2001:470:1:18::115 This is because nc appears to be using gethostbyname() 1609896026 DEBUG torsocks[27929]: [gethostbyname] Requesting ipv6.test-ipv6.com hostname (in tsocks_gethostbyname() at gethostbyname.c:68) which can't handle AAAA records. There is getaddrinfo(3) which is implemented in torsocks. Unfortunately AF_INET6 appears not to be supported yet. If you look at tsocks_tor_resolve() in src/lib/torsocks.c, you will find a stub [1].
