DNS Resolution does not work with ssh

I recently set up a home server and a domain name that points to the IPv4 and the IPv6 of that home server.
I can ssh into this server by using the IPv4, but I can not use the domain name nor the IPv6.
I did some research and figured that this must have to do something with DNS resolution.
What can I do about this?
I use NetworkManager.

Re: DNS Resolution does not work with ssh

let's verify first if your network connection does work as expected with ipv6 .

post the output of

$ ping 2a01:4f9:c010:6b1f::1
$ ping archlinux.org
$ ping -4 archlinux.org

if all 3 work try pinging the ipv6 address of the home server.


Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.


(A works at time B)  && (time C > time B ) ≠  (A works at time C)

Re: DNS Resolution does not work with ssh

All three ping commands work. However, pinging the IPv6 of my home server does not return bytes.
I then tried to login with `ssh -4 myuser@mydomain.com` and that WORKED!
One possible answer for that might be, that I might have specified a wrong IPv6 on the domain registrar.
How can I find out the IPv6 of my server when I'm logged in via ssh on my server?

Re: DNS Resolution does not work with ssh

I have tried pinging the IPv4 of my home server and that does also just wait.
I think I have set up the IPv6 correctly on the domain registrar, but when I open my website in Firefox, it uses the IPv4 version.
What am I doing wrong?

Re: DNS Resolution does not work with ssh

Is your router set up correctly to allow the ipv6 connection through its firewall?
