Windows Vista Dual Stack AAAA DNS query
[be] Shadow Hawkins on Monday, 09 February 2009 22:00:03
Hi all, i've set up my vista 64bit on the lan with aiccu and an ipv6 ping works and putting an ipv6 address in IE works too. But if I want to do something useful with IPv6, like surfing to my ipv6 enabled website via IE or FF, I never see the application/operating system asking both A and AAAA queries. They only send out ipv4 A queries. good 'old nslookup does query A and AAAA records. Is this normal behaviour for so called 'ipv6 enabled' applications such as IE? Cheers, Maarten.

ok,it seems problem was posted here a couple of times before. my apologies trick is to configure a 'dummy ipv6' address on a 'real' NIC like your wireless or ethernet network connection. full explanation: http://yorickdowne.wordpress.com/2008/01/26/ipv6-at-home-part-1-overview-teredo/ cheers, Maarten.
