Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/abh/ntppool/issues/17

When adding servers by name, also do an AAAA lookup and offer to add the IPv6 IPs if any to the pool, too. (Probably present a list of IPs with check boxes (checked by default) to approve.

See also issue #3.

@abh commented on GitHub (Jun 4, 2011):

Given a hostname (www.pool.ntp.org in this example) as input, ask the user to confirm adding the IP addresses; something like:

[ Country confirmation / dropdown ]

The NTP Pool system is entirely IP based, so we are registering IP addresses rather than hostnames; please confirm your IP address(es):

[x] 207.171.3.6 (IPv4)
[x] 2607:f238:2::51 [IPv6]

[ Continue ]
