Description of problem: it ends with 'timed out' when using localhost for nsupdate 127.0.0.1 needs to be used. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): bind-9.7.3-2.el6.i686 bind-utils-9.7.3-2.el6.i686 How reproducible: deterministic Steps to Reproduce: 0. # ping localhost PING localhost (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from localhost (127.0.0.1): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.066 ms 1. cat a_update server localhost zone redhat.com. prereq yxrrset test.redhat.com. IN A update delete test.redhat.com. IN A send update add test.redhat.com. 86400 IN A 1.2.3.4 2. nsupdate -g a_update Actual results: ; Communication with ::1#53 failed: timed out could not talk to specified name server Expected results: records are updated when localhost is used like a server. Additional info: when I replace localhost with 127.0.0.1 at a_update - then it works as expected. Issue is some of the scripts created in time of rhel5 doesn't work with rhel6. rhel5=bind-9.3.6-16.P1.el5 + bind-utils-9.3.6-16.P1.el5 it doesn't meter if I use localhost or 127.0.0.1 rhel6 omits localhost => Regression
