It appears that your DNS returns (and apparently prefers) IPv6 addresses, but your host lacks IPv6 connectivity. If you were connecting over Tor, you would see similar behaviour with a DNS name that only resolves to an IPv6 address (like ipv6.google.com), because only ~15% of exits support IPv6. And if you don't set the IPv6Traffic on the SOCKSPort, you will never connect to a remote IPv6 address.

It is entirely possible this is a result of the HE vs Cogent feud, big break in the IPv6 routing tables as a cogent is refusing to peer with HE. Not sure where they are in that negotiation...

Sigh. And this is why I rarely post. I'll take my toys and go home now. For what it's worth, you're right.... if Hostwinds peers with both then I'm wrong. It certainly won't be the first mistake I've made day. :-) John
