None of the rules in rfc3484 say anything about this. In fact, the last rule says: Rule 10: Otherwise, leave the order unchanged. If DA preceded DB in the original list, prefer DA. Otherwise prefer DB. Also, I don't see an option to prevent it from sorting the list. > If you don't want results to be sorted, don't use getaddrinfo(). Do you have a suggestion for an other interface that works with different address types other than getipnodebyname()?
