(error)

PECL radius

IPv6 doesn't work. Needed for TERENA web site. Considering rewriting code to use LDAP.

(tick)

apt-get

security.ubuntu.com does not work, so no security updates. Workaround: use local mirror nl.archive.ubuntu.com for security updates.

(tick)

Pear Net_Socket

Does not like IPv6 addresses, wrote patch.

(tick)

ntp

ntp.ubuntu.com does not work. Use our own NTP server graham.terena.org, or one of the many SURFnet chimes.

(tick)

ntp

dumps core without IPv4 loopback address. Keep legacy 127.0.0.1 address

(tick)

Confluence and JIRA LDAP auth via IPv6 = b0rked

Workaround: use IPv6 only hostname: ldap.ipv6.terena.org

(tick)

Radiator

Cannot use IPv6 LDAP server. Filed support ticket at Open.com.au. Fixed as of 2011-02-12. Also make sure to add flags to any custom perl hooks:
my $ldap = Net::LDAP->new('ldap://ldap.terena.org',inet6=>1);

(tick)

Listmanager

Custom email list manager, running on Erasmus. 2 lists were doing queries to ldap.terena.org. Unfortunately the Net::LDAP in Ubuntu Hardy (libnet-ldap-perl) is too old and does not recognise the inet6 paramater. Hacked Fixed by copying /usr/share/perl5/Net/LDAP.pm from a Lucid box.

Windows issues

(tick)

WinSCP

Upgrade to 4.2.8 or later to get IPv6 going

(error)

EMS PostgresQL manager

Tunneling via SSH does not work. Native Postgres connections work, so the bug must be in sshfwd.dll.

(tick)

TurtoiseSVN

I had some repositories checked out with TurtoiseSVN, using my SSH keys from Putty/Pageant. Any actions on the repository started to have a really long delay after switching off IPv4 on the subversion server. Fixed after using the right repository URL format, in my case using the Putty session name instead of the host name. This session has everything set properly already. In my case the hostname is svn.terena.org, and the PuTTY session name is svn.

Mac OS X issues

(error)

Autoconfiguring name servers does not work for Mac OS X

Macs need manually configured name servers, boo!

(error)

CIFS client on Mac OS X does not support IPv6

Unable to file bug report due to lame web site ("An error has occurred. Please report the error to Apple Inc. by emailing the error detail to devbugs@apple.com.")

(tick)

CyberDuck does not work with IPv6 hostnames

Use either literal IPv6 address, or IPv6-only host name godzilla.ipv6.terena.org.
Fixed in 4.0
