Requesting feedback for a considered DNS test

[Frank Bulk]

Sounds like you're suggesting that persons can specify the IP address or
FQDN for certain services?  It's not exactly clear to me that if the domain
in question is acme.com, that overriding the WWW test to www.v6.acme.net and
the xmpp to chatter.acme.org is safe and verifiable way to "confirm" IPv6
connectivity.

This script can be a good attempt, but more inteligence shuld be put in 
it:

- for a HTTP test it reports about ipv6.$domain - for my test case it 
exists, but completly different from www.$domain

- DNS test complaining about the server not inside the domain - I think it 
should not be a problem

- for ntp we are using time(number) not ntp name.

- xmpp is also exist, but in a completly different name
