DHCPd v3.1.1 ddns and AAAA records

[Stuart Longland]

Hi all,
	I've just been fiddling with DDNS updates in ISC DHCPd and BIND... and 
so far, I have it working well, except for one snag that I hit relating 
to AAAA records.

	I run a dual-stack network, with a few IPv4 subnets, and one big IPv6 
subnet.  Hosts participate on one of the IPv4 networks, and the IPv6 
network.  I'd like to have A and AAAA records for each host.

	The A records work fine if there are no AAAA records (which are 
presently static).  The problem is when I put in an AAAA record for a 
host (using automatic addressing for IPv6), dhcpd bitches about a 
mystery A record which does not exist, claims the host name is already 
in use and won't add its A record.

	I can understand the problem of server names getting hijacked, and 
support DHCPd's refusal to overwrite A records... however, I think it 
should still allow me to add my own AAAA records (managed via some other 
means) for each of the DHCP hosts.

	Is there a way the code can be modified in order to ignore AAAA 
records?  (Perhaps in a configurable manner?)

Regards,
