Hello Noriko. This is great news about IPv6!
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.
:)
To try IPv6, do we need a DS build from the tip or just a new SDK?

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,
