Hi!

Is it known that Dnsmasq returns only IPv4 addresses for Aliases?

host OpenMediaVault.localdomain
OpenMediaVault.localdomain has address 192.168.X.Y
OpenMediaVault.localdomain has IPv6 address 2a0Z:X::Y

host omv.localdomain
omv.localdomain has address 192.168.X.Y

Yeah, we introduced CNAMEs for this in addition, will come in a future release.

I expect you use partial IPv6 addresses.

Also if they then do not get registered under the correct domain, there is another patch in the pipeline:
