[Bug 686477] New: Disabling IPv6 in YaST Network setup makes x forwarding via ssh broken
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=686477 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=686477#c0 Summary: Disabling IPv6 in YaST Network setup makes x forwarding via ssh broken Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.3 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.4 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: deanjo@sasktel.net QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:2.0.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0 After I did a clean install on a HTPC with 11.4 (previously had 11.2 on it) ssh refuses to forward x when requested. It will just say "Error: Can't open display:" Re-enabling IPv6 fixes the issue but is not desirable as IPv6 support remains unavailable in many areas. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Disable IPv6 on a remote machine 2.ssh -X in from other machine 3.try to run something like xclock Actual Results: You get a Error: Can't open display: message. Expected Results: It to open up xclock on the machine you are logging in from. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Sorry to sound ticked but having to enable IPv6 on a network that does not support IPv6 is just a royal pain and adds to all sorts of network lag. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

From the e-mail ^^^
--- cut --- One thing I noticed quite some time ago (I guess, it was 11.1) that when you disable IPv6 through Global Network Settings in Yast, the file /etc/hosts still have some IPv6 definitions for local hosts and some others. This caused some problems until I removed these entries from /etc/hosts manually. --- cut --- -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

No, the difference is not in the contents of /etc/hosts, but in /etc/ssh/sshd_config : AddressFamily any (where it apparently tries to use both IPv4 and IPv6) vs AddressFamily inet (IPv4 only) So I think sshd should be fixed so that any really means "any" and not "both". -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Although YaST2 says that it will take a reboot to enable IPV6, at least X-forwarding starts working immediately. This is incredibly annoying. I just turned off IPV6 on all my machines, and then a few days later I couldn't run YaST2 over X-forwarding. None of my headless machines could be configured the graphical way, and I had no idea why. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The setup is like this: machine1 - oS 12.2 machine2 - oS 12.2, Ubuntu 12.04 machine3 - oS 12.1 IPv6 disabled in all systems (if I enable it, NUT SW fails connecting to UPS). ssh -Y from machine1 to machine2 under Ubuntu works fine, ssh -Y from machine1 to machine3 works fine. ssh -Y from machine1 to machine2 under oS 12.2 produces "X11 forwarding request failed on channel 0" ssh -Y from machine3 to machine1 succeeds, but DISPLAY is not set. ssh -Y from machine3 to machine2 under oS 12.2 - same result, DISPLAY not set. ssh -Y from machine2 / oS 12.2 to machine1 - "X11 forwarding request failed on channel 0" After reading this report and comments, I've set AddressFamily to inet on both 12.2 systems and now everything works OK. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
