Server disappears from serverlist with ipv6.

by Lejo » Post

My server disappears when I add an AAAA (ipv6) record to my domain.
Not sure if this is really a minetest Problem or a basic internet problem.
Any Ideas?

Domain: subgames.minetest.land
ipv4: 185.234.72.95
ipv6: 2a01:367:c204::17:4e1

I remove the record again to keep it visible on the list.

Thanks for your help!

Make sure you enable IPv6 in your server configuration:

Code: Select all

ipv6_server = true
The reason is that if your domain has an IPv6 record, your Minetest server is expected to be reachable over IPv6 too.

Thanks first!
Is the server still ipv4 reachable?
I'm asking cause all ips than are ipv6 and just have this anoying ::ffff: prefix so they are just ::ffff:0.0.0.0
Is there a way to allow both?

Yes it will still be reachable over IPv4.
Mods will get IP addresses in ::ffff:1.2.3.4 format, they'll just need to deal with it.
