retitle 539269 Erlang DNS resolver cannot use IPv6 DNS servers to resolve SRV records reassign 539269 erlang thanks
Sergei Golovan verified the bug still exists in Erlang/OTP R13B, so reassigning it. It seems that the bug is about differences in how simple (A) lookups and complex (SRV) lookups are performed. If I understand correctly, it is done by different bits of the code: simple lookups seem to use the system resolver (and so ejabberd was able to successfully communicate with the servers whose XMPP domains resolved to actual server IPs, and which used the standard s2s port for communication), but complex lookups (SRV in this case) are probably performed by directly sending/receiving data, which requires knowledge of the address of at least one nameserver to work properly, and that nameserver is not parsed correctly from /etc/resolv.conf. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
