Any experiences with IPv6 and bookmyname?

Hi, Anybody set already an IPv6 glue with the bookmyname.com registrar? According to [1] IPv6 glues are supported. Therefor I transfered my domain nobaq.net to bookmyname.com in order to set an IPv6 glue. But unfortunately this does not seem to work. According to whois, the nameservers are set correctly:

$ whois nobaq.net [...] Name Server:NS.NOBAQ.NET 2001:7b8:3cd:3::171,93.83.102.171 Name Server:SLAVE.NOBAQ.NET 2001:1418:1e9::1,62.99.247.88 [...]

But there is no AAAA record in the TLD servers but the A records work:

$ dig @a.gtld-servers.net. ns.nobaq.net. -t A +short 93.83.102.171 $ dig @a.gtld-servers.net. ns.nobaq.net. -t AAAA +short $

I already waited for a couple of days but because I am querying the servers directly, the entries should somehow appear in "realtime" anyway, shouldn't they? Regards, Niki [1] https://www.sixxs.net/faq/dns/?faq=ipv6glue

Hi, The solution is: Use Home > Manage > Register your DNS servers (hosts) to the registry instead of Home > Manage > Change your domain names DNS The latter one will only update the IPv4 glues. Regards, Niki
