BIND on IPv6 interface

[Alan Zoysa]

Hello,
Am using BIND 9.5.0-P2 on Debian (testing/Lenny).

listen-on-v6 { any; };
works fine and also starts daemon on IPv4 addresses (I wonder why? since
there is "listen-on" for IPv4 -- If "listen-on-v6" causes BIND daemon to
start on IPv4 addresses, it should also accept IPv4 address in its
arguments, no?).

I wanted BIND to run only on IPv6 (say localhost6) address so I did the
following
listen-on-v6 { ::1/128; };
but it does not work!

neither it works when I put the IPv6 address of my interface that I obtain
from "ifconfig" output.

Please enlighten me. Thank you.
