Sounds logical, i just cant confirm this thesis: black:/home/sb# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv6/bindv6only 0 black:/home/sb# ps aux |grep oidentd oident 19815 0.0 0.0 12236 620 ? Ss 09:10 0:00 /usr/sbin/oidentd -mf -P 80.82.223.1 -u oident -g oident So bindv6only is disabled and oidentd has not been started with any option passed to -a black:/home/sb# telnet -6 red.cubewerk.de 113 Trying 2a01:198:200:350::2...
