Hi all,

 Very seldom avahi-browse returns  ipv6 address instead of IPv4 address.
Why does this happen ?

$ avahi-browse -t -r -l _reelboxAVG._tcp
[...]
= eth1 IPv4 RBServer
_reelboxAVG._tcp     local
   hostname = [RBServer.local]
   address = [fe80::2e0:f4ff:fe17:b2f3]
   port = [2001]
   txt = []
[...]

How can this behaviour be disabled ?  Setting use-ipv6=no  in
/etc/avahi/avahi-daemon.conf ?

Sundararaj
