Avahi and IPv6

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I am trying to get Avahi working in a Fedora 14 IPv6 environment. I've
read what I can find about the subject, but am still having trouble.

I have written "use-ipv6=yes" to "avahi-daemon.conf," but when I run
"avahi-browse," I do not see any IPv6 services listed (only IPv4). For
an additional test, I turned off "use-ipv4." In this case, "avahi-browse"
listed no services. I would expect to see at least the "_workstation._tcp"
service listed as available on IPv6.

Finally, I enabled ipv6, disabled ipv4 and ran "avahi-publish -s test
_test._tcp 80."  This command responded with "Established under name
'test'," but avahi-browse did not display the service.

The Avahi daemon does seem to pick up my IPv6 interface, as the following
debug output shows:

$ sudo avahi-daemon --debug
Process 8620 died: No such process; trying to remove PID file. (/var/run/avahi-daemon//pid)
Found user 'avahi' (UID 498) and group 'avahi' (GID 493).

Server startup complete. Host name is imp.local. Local service cookie is 3709212864.
Service "imp" (/services/udisks.service) successfully established.
Service "imp" (/services/ssh.service) successfully established.

I have tried turning off my host firewall and have disabled SELinux in
order to test.

Does anyone know why "avahi-browse" is not displaying IPv6 services?
