You have been subscribed to a public bug by Jamie Strandboge (jdstrand): Binary package hint: vino
Bug: vino-preferences does not report public IPv6 addresses, only IPv4 addresses. On: Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Alpha 6 vino-preferences is now reporting: "Your desktop is only reachable over the local network. Others can access your computer using the address 192.168.2.150." As vinage / vnc does now, as of Jaunty Alpha 6, correctly handle connections over Ipv6 (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vinagre/+bug/290394), vino- preferences should now also report (public) IPv6 addresses. Example of correct and expected behaviour: "Your desktop is only reachable over the local network. Others can access your computer using the address 192.168.2.150. Your desktop is reachable from Internet using Ipv6. Others can access your computer using the address 2001:838:1111::2222" I think in vino-preferences.c the call dbus_g_proxy_call is taking care of finding out the IP addresses. I couldn't find out how to make that call dbus_g_proxy_call report back IPv6 addresses. ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ apt-cache policy vino vino: Installed: 2.25.91-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 2.26.0-0ubuntu1 Version table: 2.26.0-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/main Packages *** 2.25.91-0ubuntu1 0 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ ** Affects: vino Importance: Critical Status: Confirmed ** Affects: vino (Ubuntu) Importance: Low Status: Triaged ** Tags: ipv6 -- vino-preferences does not report public IPv6 addresses https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/344489 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
