You need to start sshd with the -6 option. There are a number of bugs filed about this; the reason that it hasn't been enabled yet is that there is an incompatibility between glibc and the Linux 2.2 kernel which causes sshd to fail to start up at all if IPv6 listening is enabled by default, and the ssh maintainers are hesitant to apply workarounds that would merely paper over this bug. I think there's a potential change which could enable IPv6 for people on 2.4 without being any more of a workaround than the current --with-ipv4-default option. However, it needs some code to be written, and I haven't had the chance yet. -- Colin Watson (temporary ssh maintainer) [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
