Let's try (my sshd runs with the -6 switch, remember ?) : ~$ ssh localhost [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password: -> works ~$ ssh ip6-localhost ssh: ip6-localhost: Name or service not known -> ooops ~$ ssh -6 ip6-localhost [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password: -> works ~$ ssh -6 ::ffff:127.0.0.1 # what you suggested cgo@::ffff:127.0.0.1's password: -> works (it also works with my public IP) ~$ ssh -V SSH Version OpenSSH-1.2.3, protocol version 1.5. Compiled with SSL. ? Tell me if I miss the point, but it works for me... Oh, note that all the IPv6 adresse I have are in my /etc/hosts file (no AAAAs), and are link scoped. -- Charles
