Seems that the free VNCserver included with RHEL5/Centos 5 does NOT support option intransport. Thus no IPv6.

Interestingly, vncviewer is attempting to connect (TCP SYNs) over IPv6 and getting reset because nothing is listening on that port on IPv6 on my server.

In Centos 5.2, I have vnc-server-4.1.2-9.el5.i386.rpm

Which I assume is the free edition.

I found the following: http://www.realvnc.com/products/enterprise/4.1/ipv6.html

That tells there is IPv6 support in the Enterprise and the Personal versions, but does not say anything about the free version.

In my /etc/sysconfig/vncservers I added the following:

VNCSERVERARGS[1]="-geometry 1280x768 -depth 16 -InTransports=IPv6,IPv4"

And netstat -na|grep 5902 shows vncserver only listening on IPv4. If I remove IPv4 and/or replace the = with a space, I still only see it listening on IPv4.

Is IPv6 supported in the Linux server?  How do I enable it?
