Peixing Sun,

Samba 4 alpha 6 does not support IPv6. In order to get it working you
need to patch it.

Regards,
David

Hi All:
 
 
 
I downloaded and installed Samba4 Alpha6 on my IPV6 compatible Linux
client. 
 
I tried to use smbclient to connect a share using IPV4 IP, it works.
 
I tried to use smbclient to connect another share using IPV6 IP, it
failed with BAD_NETWORK_NAME error.
 
 
 
I searched on Google for "Samba4" and IPV6,  I think Samba4 doesn't
support IPV6.
 
Could anybody confirm this for me?
 
 
 
Thanks
