Dynamic DNS for AAAA records

[kpatz]

Do you have plans to implement Dynamic DNS for IPv6 (AAAA) records in the future?

Currently it only appears to work for IPv4 (A records).

Thanks,
Kevin

Hi there. We don't currently support dynamic DNS for IPv6, but it is something we would like to implement in the future.

This appears to be partially implemented. I can submit records for dynamic updating that "succeed", but if they contain an ipv6 address, the address is put in an A record instead of an AAAA record. It's strange seeing ipv6 addresses stored in A records instead of AAAA records (and it obviously isn't correct). Dumping the zone file in bind format confirms that this is indeed what is happening.

I had to write my own dynamic update client in PHP to even attempt this. ddclient is worthless for ipv6 updating.

Any plans on moving forward with this? I could DEFINITELY use ipv6 dynamic DNS updating.
