I just tested NMControl on my MacbookPro, and was able to visit nx.bit website. But that's IPv4.
What if I set my .bit domain with IPv6 address as per NMC specifications, will that resolve that IPv6 with AAAA queries towards .bit domain?
Example: dig AAAA mydomain.bit

Does NMControl support AAAA .bit queries ?

Re: Does NMControl support AAAA .bit queries ?
It seems there is a bug in NMControl as AAAA queries always lead to empty results. It does contain some code in pluginNamespaceDomain.py and namecoindns.py that looks for the "AAAA" type, though. This bug must have been around for quite some time, see https://github.com/namecoin/nmcontrol/issues/20
Calum McAlinden's Namecoin To Zonefile correctly answers ip6-related requests. Choose one of the OpenNIC servers for experiments, e.g.Be aware that this method is not anonymous. All the queries eventually make it to OpenNICs only .bit resolving server which is run by Calum himself.
