I'm tring config DNS server for ipv6.

1. BIND version 8.1.1 is support AAAA type. ---> download

2. make (compile)

3. make 'zone file' for domain
(q1: Can I involve ipv4 and ipv6 hosts information into same zone file?)
anyway, i write ipv4 and ipv6 hosts into same zone file.
For 'nslookup',  it operates well.

4. for client, first it searchs 'hosts' file, and if don't exist that host
name then it sends
   'query' message to DNS server.
(q2: Does client sends 'query' message using ipv6 packet?)
(q3: This case,  Which 'resolv.conf' file contains DNS server address ipv6
or ipv4 addr?)

5. If DNS server can't find that host name, it send to other DNS server
(q4: Which DNS server for ipv6  avilable?)
If i can't  config DNS server, i hope using resolver-only client and query
to avilable server

Thanks
