samba - Mar 2002 - IPv6 & Samba

Hello.

I've tried to search any thread on this list about samba development
towards IPv6. Couldn't find anything, so im writing to ask if someone
knows anything about it.

I also cant see nothing about IPv6 at the samba sites. At IPv6 sites i
only can find a "not yet developed" on the Samba item.

Im not really into development (im more of a networking guy) but are there
any plans about making Samba work above an IPv6 "layer"?

Thank You,


./Carlos

Try it (on port 445, as netbios dosn't work with IPv6) and tell us what
breaks!
