The only possibility to prevent IPv6 queries is to disable IPv6 on the participant hosts. You can do so by adding install ipv6 /bin/true to the /etc/modprobe.conf. As an alternate alias net-pf-10 off alias ipv6 off are valid entries too. The quickest way would be a reboot to prevent the module loading, as unloading the ipv6 module is not that easy due to dependencies by other modules.
