Re: [Fedora-directory-devel] IPv6 testing: listenhost

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,
