Anybody have experience running rbldnsd (serving surbl zones) on IPv6 addresses? Clearly the data -in- the zones are IPv4 values but the servers can communicate using IPv6 addresses.
I'm in the process of a general config refresh & IPv6 deployment and noticed that the surbl dns servers lists that my copies are in (a.surb.org & b.surbl.org) only contain IPv4 addrs (A records), no AAAA records.
So is this just inertial or is there a reason for not listing IPv6 addrs for rbldnsd servers? I did a local test with rbldnsd-0.996b on SLES11-SP1 and it seems to run/answer on IPv6 just fine.

Hi Dave, SURBL has nameservers running on IPv6 addresses. If you'd like to provide DNS service over v6, I think we an add your servers to the delegations for that.
SURBL does not currently blacklist IPv6 addresses, but it may in future.
