http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=970282 Bug ID: 970282 Summary: Getent hosts incorrectly resolvs an LDAP IPv6 host as IPv4 Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 42.1 Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Network Assignee: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: david.westfall@red-inc.us QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- On 42.1 getent hosts resolves an LDAP IPv6 host as an IPv4 Host with an address of 255.255.255.255 Atlas:~ # getent hosts |grep IPv6 255.255.255.255 Hagar.IPv6.RDTE.ctl Hagar.IPv6.RDTE dn: cn=Hagar.IPv6.RDTE.ctl,ou=Hosts,dc=CTL,dc=CrewSystems cn: Hagar.IPv6.RDTE.ctl cn: Hagar.IPv6.RDTE iphostnumber: XXXX:XXX:XXX:XXXX:20e:cff:fe33:2bec macaddress: 00:0E:0C:33:2B:EC objectclass: top objectclass: ipHost objectclass: device objectclass: ieee802Device The XXXX are to mask out my real ip. Dave W Also I am not sure if it is a bug or a config option that I have not found, but getent hosts does not show any IPv6 host info. From 13.1 on getent (hosts ahosts ahostsv4 ahostsv6) only shows IPv4 hosts and the output is the same for each database.
