[Fedora-directory-devel] IPv6 testing: listenhost

[Noriko Hosoi <nhosoi@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I'm testing listenhost using IPv6 address now.
I put this configuration attribute in cn=config.

   nsslapd-listenhost: fe80::208:74ff:fe18:fcd5%eth0

And accessed the server using the IPv6 address as well as its IPv4 
address.   Here's the result:

   $ ./ldapsearch -h [fe80::208:74ff:fe38:fcd5] -p 12345  -b
   "dc=example,dc=com" "(objectclass=*)" dn
   dn: dc=example,dc=com

   $ ./ldapsearch -h 172.16.15.156 -p 12345 -b "dc=example,dc=com"
   "(objectclass=*)" dn
   ldap_simple_bind: Can't connect to the LDAP server - Connection refused

I think this is the expected behavior, but I'd like to have your thoughts. 

Please note that if there is no nsslapd-listenhost specified, the both 
command lines return the same result "dn: dc=example,dc=com". 

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...

Thanks,
--noriko
