Hello Noriko. This is great news about IPv6!<br>
About the binding, it sounds correct but I imagine a sysadmin would
find it inconvenient, wanting to be able to listen on a single physical
interface in a multihomed system but have both IP and IPv6 available.
I guess they could bind LDAP to one and LDAPS to the other in a pinch.
:)<br>
<br>
To try IPv6, do we need a DS build from the tip or just a new SDK?<br>

I'm testing listenhost using IPv6 address now.
<br>
I put this configuration attribute in cn=config.
<br>
<br>
nsslapd-listenhost: fe80::208:74ff:fe18:fcd5%eth0
<br>
<br>
And accessed the server using the IPv6 address as well as its IPv4
address. Here's the result:
<br>
<br>
$ ./ldapsearch -h [fe80::208:74ff:fe38:fcd5] -p 12345 -b
<br>
"dc=example,dc=com" "(objectclass=*)" dn
<br>
dn: dc=example,dc=com
<br>
<br>
$ ./ldapsearch -h 172.16.15.156 -p 12345 -b "dc=example,dc=com"
<br>
"(objectclass=*)" dn
<br>
ldap_simple_bind: Can't connect to the LDAP server - Connection
refused
<br>
<br>
I think this is the expected behavior, but I'd like to have your
thoughts. <br>
Please note that if there is no nsslapd-listenhost specified, the both
command lines return the same result "dn: dc=example,dc=com". <br>
Also, to someone who is curious, to run the same test, you need a new
version of LDAP C SDK, which hasn't been released yet...
<br>
<br>
Thanks,
<br>
