We have just connected a small network to the 6bone.  However
currently we have a pure ipv6 connection (ie no ipv4 address
allocation!).

We want to do dnslookup using IPv6 transport from a FreeBSD-4.1R box.
Simple configuration suggests dnslookup over IPv6 is not supported.
Is it possible to configuration the kernel/libc/system to allow
dnslookups over IPv6?  Or does it require using bind?  (If bind is
required, is it bind-9?)

Thanks, Jens
