And is it possible to make BIND stop trying to use IPv6 at all? I'm in a
similar situation, I know I have connection issues and I simply want
bind to either not use IPv6 or at least prefer IPv4.
liste-on-v6 {none;} in named.conf does not help, and I'm not much
surprised, as it's about listening and not querying.
