Where is the DNSv6 server list stored in Linux?

Question

In Linux, where is the DNSv6 server list stored? Like in the v4 case, will it be stored in /etc/resolv.conf?

Answer 1

In the same file

check the "nameserver" stanza.

nameserver

IPv4 address (in dot notation) or IPv6 address (in hex-and- colon notation) of a name server that the resolver should query. Scoped IPv6 address notation is accepted as well (see inet6(4) for details). A non-standard port may be specified using [host]:port syntax. When a non-standard port is specified the host address must be enclosed in square brackets. For example:

nameserver [10.0.0.1]:5353
nameserver [::1]:5353

You may be able to go without the brackets, but i think i recall the code was changed to make it expected fro ipv6 addresses. Maybe someone else can confirm that.
