Some posts claimed you only need the last "100" precendence line, but I tried it both ways, as well as other combinations, by following the file's comments. > ...also of note is that gai.conf should only affect the getaddrinfo() > API. If the client is using an older API like gethostbyname(), it won't > order DNS results correctly. I suspect you're right; how to tell what system call is used by CentOS 6.9 NFS automounter? I've watched the automounter daemon in foreground debug mode, and it does show the NFS server mount attempt with IPv6 first, but the actual API call name isn't displayed there. This seems the most likely explanation, I'd just like to know for certain before I give up on gai.conf and restort to disabling IPv6 or other workarounds (e.g. /etc/nfsmount.conf).
