ipv6?

[Brian J. Murrell]

Is sssd IPv6 aware/ready?  I notice that despite the fact that my
network is IPv6 capable and my DNS returns AAAA records, sssd seems to
prefer IPv4 connections to LDAP and kerberos, etc.

Is there a config and/or build option I'm just missing?

SSSD is not natively IPv6 aware. We haven't really put much effort yet
into supporting IPv6. We wanted to get the 90% case (IPv4) stabilized first.

Patches welcome :)

We actually don't resolve names ourselves but let the openldap and krb5
libraries do it.
Apparently they prefer IPv4 addresses.
Hopefully we will solve this by introducing our own resolver in the next
weeks.
Testing and bug reports about IPv6 are most welcome.

Simo.
