Description Piotr Bieniaszewski 2013-01-07 18:56:14 UTC
www.gentoo.org is finally available over IPv6, but only one of v6 addresses answers on port 80.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
$ dig +noall +answer aaaa www.gentoo.org @ns2.gentoo.org
www.gentoo.org.         1800    IN      CNAME   www-bytemark-v4v6.gentoo.org.
www-bytemark-v4v6.gentoo.org. 900 IN    AAAA    2001:41c8:0:936::136
www-bytemark-v4v6.gentoo.org. 900 IN    AAAA    2001:41c8:0:936::137

2.
$ telnet 2001:41c8:0:936::136 80
Trying 2001:41c8:0:936::136...
Connected to 2001:41c8:0:936::136.
Escape character is '^]'.
GET / HTTP/1.1
Host: www.gentoo.org

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
[.. cut ..]

3.
$ telnet 2001:41c8:0:936::137 80
Trying 2001:41c8:0:936::137...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection timed out
Actual Results:  
Timeout when connecting to [2001:41c8:0:936::137]:80


Expected Results:  
Successful connection on both addresses
OR
only working address returned in dns query

Users of web browsers that don't implement "happy eyeballs" may experience long delays when opening www.gentoo.org.

Fixed in DNS, was pointing to the wrong host
