Hello. [I am not a subscriber to the dev list, so please CC me with any responses. Thank you.]
I am playing with a 3.HEAD-20080820 build of Squid, to use it's support for IPv6. It seems to be working well (maybe a little slow relative to v2.7S4, both on Linux) except for one irritation. Given a site with both A and AAAA records, Squid always opts for the IPv4 connection. It seems that a lot of predominantly-IPv6 sites also maintain an IPv4 address, just so they can tell you to get on board with IPv6. For sites with only AAAA records, Squid does a great job of getting the content to me. Even the use of the square-bracket scheme (e.g. http://[www.kame.net]/ ) isn't enough to coax Squid into IPv6 land when a IPv4 address is also found by DNS look-up. How can I instruct Squid to prefer the IPv6 address over an IPv4 address? Thanks.
