RH> because the same hostname can have A and AAA records That argument makes sense up until the point that you realize there are a fair number of hosts out there with multiple A records too, and ping has to randomly choose between them. I'm all for a single unified set of commands (-4, -6). The real question, is what should the default be? And if 4 now, when do you switch later? [thus, I think -both now with v6 first if a AAAA is available otherwise v4 is probably the right answer] -- Wes Hardaker My Pictures: http://capturedonearth.com/ My Thoughts: http://pontifications.hardakers.net/ -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
