We have that pretty much standard on all our servers at work because if you ssh and both client and server have ipv6 the connection takes forever for it to give up trying to find a PTR for your client's ipv6 address. And don't try to use GENERATE in BIND to make PTRs for all your ipv6 addresses... you'll run out of memory trying to start the daemon :-)Received on Wed Sep 11 2013 - 15:01:01 UTC
