Bug#80503: ssh: default configuration breaks IPv6



Package: ssh
Version: 2.2.0p1-1.1
Severity: important

/etc/ssh/sshd.conf has the line:

ListenAddress 0.0.0.0

This avoids ssh listening on IPv6 addresses. If the admin want not to restrict
ssh to IPv4 clients, there should not be any ListenAddress directive (using ::1
would break IPv4, having no ListenAddress directive sshd binds to ::1 if the
host is IPv6-capable or 0.0.0.0 else)

Thanks,
				HoraPe
