AAAA Records & Subdomain Delegation

beta

@caker:

A Records - including IPv6 (doesn't work yet)
Is there any progress towards making this work?

Also, I was trying to delegate subdomain ip6.example.com to my home server, but when the zone was rendered it came out with:

                NS      XXXX-pt.tunnel.tservX.fmt.ipv6.he.net.

Shouldn't it be:

ip6           NS      XXXX-pt.tunnel.tservX.fmt.ipv6.he.net.

The NS entry looked like this in DNS manager:

Name Server Subdomain TTL

XXXX-pt.tunnel.tservX.fmt.ipv6.he.net ip6.example.com Default

The sub-domain delegation should be fixed.

We'll work on AAAA support.

Thanks,

Give it a shot now?

I tried to enter 2001:470:XXXX:XXXX:: but it came up invalid. Entering 2001:470:XXXX:XXXX::0000 (which means the same address as the first one) worked.

Also, when I tried to edit an AAAA record it said "Type not found."

Duh, my fault. That's fixed now.

Still looking into the other issue.

Mike says the regex should be fixed for the ipv6 shorthand addresses. Give it a shot.

Yep, it works.

Thanks Chris!
