[arm-allstar] Strange messages on journalctl

Hi Roger,

It looks like DNS is trying to resolve an IPv6 address for 
status.allstarlink.org.  Take a look at this file:

/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants

...Here is what that file should look like:

<snip>------------------------------------------------------

[Unit]
Description=Internet domain name server
After=network.target

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/named -4 -f -u named
ExecReload=/usr/bin/rndc reload
ExecStop=/usr/bin/rndc stop

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

<snip>------------------------------------------------------


Note the "-4" in the ExecStart definition. This only enables IPv4 and 
should be present for now.


73, David KB4FXC
