I use fedora core 2 I have set a name server with bind. All seem to work perfectly with windows client's but with my fedora client that's very slow. When I do an nslookup all seem to work # nslookup exemple Server: 10.1.0.115 Address: 10.1.0.115#53 Name: exemple.foo.org Address: 10.1.0.69 but if I do a ssh on this host, that's very long and if I do ssh -4 that's immediate. With ethereal, I see than I request Standard query AAAA -> ipv6 request to my DNS server. Can I disable ipv6 request on my linux boxes?? -- Daniel Chénard SysAdmin Unix Infoteck Internet 5480, Boul.
