ping uses NSS (Name Service Switch) to work out what "databases" to use for resolving, dns being one potiential database. dig and nslookup don't use NSS but directly go to DNS, as they are DNS tools. Also you didn't say what query type you used for them, but I assume you're trying to find the AAAA record. Could the resolver library not be IPv6 aware? The unknow(sic) problem was a while ago so maybe its an old library? You could try tracing on the network to see what it is trying to do. - Craig -- Craig Small GnuPG:1C1B D893 1418 2AF4 45EE 95CB C76C E5AC 12CA DFA5 Eye-Net Consulting http://www.enc.com.au/ MIEE Debian developer csmall at : enc.com.au ieee.org debian.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
