Q: When I try to use rndc, I get the error message "network

A: You probably have "default-server localhost" in /etc/rndc.conf,
your /etc/hosts or DNS maps "localhost" to both the IPv4 loopback
address 127.0.0.1 and the IPv6 loopback address ::1, and you do not

"default-server 127.0.0.1" to make sure rdnc does not try to contact
the name server using IPv6.
