Well, I dont know, but this is what happens: THis is without entry in 
/etc/hosts:

dhcp-28-70:~ mikaelabrahamsson$ ping6 swm.pp.se
PING6(56=40+8+8 bytes) 2001:67c:64:47:b501:73ad:3c6:867c --> 2a00:801::f

dhcp-28-70:~ mikaelabrahamsson$ host swm.pp.se
swm.pp.se has address 212.247.200.143
swm.pp.se has IPv6 address 2a00:801::f

Then I put

212.247.200.143    uplift.swm.pp.se uplift swm.pp.se webmail.swm.pp.se

in /etc/hosts and I get:

hcp-28-70:~ mikaelabrahamsson$ ssh swmike at swm.pp.se -v
OpenSSH_5.9p1, OpenSSL 0.9.8y 5 Feb 2013

It's a bit strange, Chrome won't connect either, telnet doesn't work, but 
Safari does work, Firefox connects but it takes a very long time 
(minutes). So perhaps ssh and Safari/Firefox uses a different API call 
than the others?
