Hi sg,

If what you say is true. I hope you will still respect me after saying that, but it does not make any sence.

These AAAA requests, only occurs with check_nwstat.

I have more then this running, check_snmp, check_nt, check_ntp, etc. And those does not make any problems...

Any more idears?

post 1.3.1 we added support for IPv6 in the netutils, etc.

None of the individual plugins were affected except for ping.

In netutils the order of the fuctions calls IPv6 resolution first if the 
OS supports IPv6 and then calls IPv4

Perhaps a switch to configure to explicitly disable IPv6 support even if
the OS supports it is needed...
