Odd networking response

This is an odd one.

Connected only by LAN, with the other interfaces disabled.

IPv6 disabled in the network settings.

NSLOOKUP returns IPv6 addresses....



Frankly I am at a loss on that one.

The firewall/gateway is also set to respond preferentially with IPv4.

Yes, but you're simply asking a DNS server to map a name to IP addresses and it simply returns all the address mappings it has listed, it doesn't care what version of IP you're using.
