I have my PowerDNS 3.0 on OpenVZ VPS.

Even if you don't need IPv6, you need to have an IPv6 loopback or link-local
IP.

Hello,

Could somebody help me?

My PowerDNS is working fine, but

When I enable *master=yes* in pdns.conf
It will open issues with ipv6 as shown on logs


I have this:


pdns.conf

*local-address=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx,127.0.0.1*
*#local-ipv6=::1*
*#query-local-address6=::1*


*xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is an IPv4 ip like 200.100.63.15*
