% 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

Bindv9 is prefered. There is some limited support with bindv8 but it
requires significant patching w/ KAME code.
