I am doing some testing and it almost seems as if<br>
Firefox 3.0.1 that comes with Centos 5.2 is NOT<br>
working with IPv6.<br>
<br>
Anyone know for sure?<br>
<br>
I am getting weird hang behaviours and other just<br>
not working things.<br>
<br>
----<br>
more likely a DNS issue<br>
<br>
Name is coded in /etc/hosts<br>
<br>
Of course the fqdn I am using does NOT follow 'standard'<br>
TLDs, but it should NOT be masking that, or would that be<br>
a 'security' feature?<br>
<br>
----<br>
I have no clue what you are talking about being coded in<br>
/etc/hosts...<br>
<br>
you can check DNS if it returns ipV6 addresses for hosts or if<br>
there are<br>
snags/delays in trying to resolve names from command line<br>
<br>
p3490.htt is in my /etc/hosts file as something like:<br>
<br>
2701:24:2:1:0:1:2:3 p3490.htt<br>
<br>
I can 'ping6 -n p3490.htt'<br>
<br>
But putting a url of http//p3490.htt does not work....<br>
<br>

DNS can be real slow when IPv6 is enabled. For instance the following firefox delta would speed up firefox on IPv4 connections. Maybe you need to turn it on?<br>

You may have already found this, but it helped when I had the same problem.<br>
<br>
In firefox type in about:config,<br>
filter for 'ipv6' you should have an entry for network.dns.disableIPv6<br>
right click on it and 'toggle' it to a true value,<br>
restart firefox and see if it helps.<br>

Um, as the original poster, I WANT IPv6. Not make IPv4 lookups faster by ignoring AAAA records.<br>
<br>
Further testing has IPv6 working just fine. Thing is when I enable the HIP API intercepts, FIrefox does not work. Like they are doing something 'non-standard' with the regualr TCP socket API so that HIP can't slide in there. I tried disabling a number of options, thinking it might be some security setting, but if it is, I have not found it.<div>
