Quick question. When I have IPv6 support enabled on my network adapter, then perform a ipconfig /all, I see a section titled "connection specific dns suffix search list" which contains "mshome" and "net". If I disable IPv6 support, the "connection specific dns suffix search list" section disappears from ipconfig /all report. Why does this section only show up when IPv6 support is enabled? And why are "mshome" and "net" (but not say "com") suffixes listed there?
