First, thanks to everyone who might be reading this: I will be very greateful for any idea!

I'm running Windows Server 2016 on an Intel S1200SPLR board. I try to run it with IPV6, but so far, it does not bind to any adapter, only ipv4 works. I only got a virtual DC to keep its DNS server address.

Any idea?

    Hi, in your DNS service you must set it to listen to the ipv6 address too. By default it listen to ipv4 & ipv6 you had when you installed the services, so it might not be tiked if you added ipv6 support later on.
