Over the weekend I did some 32-to-64 bit architecture upgrades on NanoBSD systems with 64-bit hardware.

The migrations were seamless EXCEPT that in every case, the DNS forwarder [sic] would fail to work unless selectively un-bound from IPv6 interfaces.

On all of the systems, there was at least one interface included by the default "all" which is not dual-stack. I suspect this is why dnsmasq was choking. HOWEVER, I bring it up here in the forum because the very same configs would not cause DNS to choke if restored to 32-bit architecture of the same version.

Strange.

In my case, I've switched those systems to use unbound/Resolver, and in all cases, all systems with unbound don't need to be un-bound from IPv6 interfaces.

Most of these configs have been rolled forward since early 2.0, so I suspect that there may be idiosyncrasies in the config (e.g. old defaults) that might be responsible (e.g. settings that may not cause this issue to express itself in a brand new install).

Any hypotheses of this weird observation?
