Re: Debian and IPV6
netstat -A inet6 -an results in the following
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State
tcp 0 0 :::80 :::* LISTEN
typing ssh -vvv mypeerhost results in
OpenSSH 3.5p1 Debian 1:3.5p1-2, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0 OpenSSL 0x0090607f
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config
debug1: Rhosts Authentication disabled, originating port will not be
trusted.
debug1: ssh_connect: needpriv 0
ssh: mypeerhost: Name or service not known
This is different from output in ipv4 mode. I believe this implies that
ipv6 is not supported (doesn't understand the host id in ipv6 format as
listed in my /etc/hosts file. I thought this ssh package was enabled
for ipv6, but perhaps I have to configure or compile. Unfortunately,
the .deb did not load any Doc files for me to read.
BTW, the ssh_config file has every entry commented out with leading #.
