hi,
I am a new comer in this list.
I just upgraded my named 8.2.2-P5 server to 9.0.1 version
but it fails before starting.I saw messages which are below in
/var/log/messages
There is something wrong with IPV6 maybe...
I checked mail list archives and FAQs but almost no information about this
problem. I use slackware 7.1 linux.
is there anyone having experience with this problem..
if yes , I will be so glad..

yours sincerely.

Do you have your machine configured to use IP v6? If not, then there's
nothing wrong. That line is just an information message telling you that
no v6 interfaces were found on your system, so it didn't configure itself
to answer to any v6 addresses.

That depends on whether you have configured any IPv6 addresses on your
systems network interfaces or not. The log message just means the name
server didn't find any IPv6 interfaces. Whether that's a problem
depends on the network configuration of your computer. If you don't
have any IPv6 interfaces, the message is nothing to worry about: it's
just confirming that there aren't any. If you have configured any IPv6
interfaces, then the message is something to worry about because the
name server didn't find them.
