Bug#550990: IPv6 is broken
Package: linux-image-2.6.26-2-iop32x
Version: 2.6.26-17lenny2
Severity: important
Hi,
After an etch->lenny upgrade on this very machine a few months ago, I
could no longer log in through SSH; when I tried, I would immediately
receive a 'Connection refused' error.
Since there is no console on this machine, debugging was pretty hard. I
originally thought that the problem was related to the SSH not having
been configured, and the system failing to boot due to that.
Instead, however, it turns out that SSH was running properly, and that a
'netstat -tl' did show the SSH socket in the LISTEN state; but when
trying to connect to the port, or when I ran nmap to the host, there was
no response.
Changing the SSH configuration file to say 'Listen 0.0.0.0' instead of
'Listen ::' fixed the problem. The configuration file had not been
changed during the upgrade, and worked properly before.
