ping6

[Unknown]

HI all,

I have noticed some weird beaviour with the resolver of ping6.

If I type the following command:

dig AAAA azzmosphere.azzmos.com.au

I get back a valid IPv6 address

if I use ping6 to ping that address I get a valid response

but if I do the following:

ping6 azzmosphere.azzmos.com.au

I get the message "No address associated with nodename"

and when I "echo $?" it returns EPERM.

I am using
Darwin Kernel Version 8.11.1: Wed Oct 10 18:23:28 PDT 2007;
root:xnu-792.25.20~1/RELEASE_I386 i386 i386

Anyone know what is going on here? I have look though the ping6 MAN
page and checked on web and it the syntax looks valid AFAIK.
