Description
Hi !
I try to deploy RocketChat in IPv6 only environment,
The node process fail while trying to speak to IPv6-only MongoDB server dns name.
MongoError: failed to connect to server [mongodb.default.svc.k8s.domain.tld:27017] on first connect [MongoError: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND mongodb.default.svc.k8s.domain.tld mongodb.default.svc.k8s.domain.tld:27017]
It seem that getaddrinfo is basically used in IPv4 world only..
Thanks !
