I've also posted this in the FreeNAS forum=2C but hoping I'll have more luc= k here. FreeNAS is built on FreeBSD. -- I've been working on this for a few days and am about ready to throw in the= towel.Running FreeNAS 0.7.2.5543 (So based on FreeBSD 7.2) on a USB Flash = drive. AFP and SMB working fine.What I wanted to do was enable AFP over IPv= 6 and then also have Bonjour (mDNSResponderPosix) also advertise the IPv6 l= ocations into Mac Finder's sidebar.So I installed FreeBSD onto a VM to use = as a build machine=2C first compiled netatalk 2.1.5=2C moved the relevent b= its over to FreeNAS and with addition of the -ipaddr my:v6:address:: I was = able to connect to my AFP shares with Command-K -- afp://[my:v6:address::].= That was all fine.The problem is in the Finder sidebar=2C the advertised s= ervices are still just IPv4. I downloaded Bonjour Browser and from my Apple= devices=2C I can see various services listed with both IPv4 and IPv6 addre= sses - from FreeNAS - only the IPv4 address is broadcast.So then=2C on my F= reeBSD build machine=2C I setup a basic mdnsresonder.conf for ssh=2C and ra= n the same binary and from the build machine it also only broadcasts the IP= v4 address not both IPv4 and IPv6 and ssh is listening on both IPv4 and IPv= 6 - I can ssh to the build machine over IPv4 or IPv6.So this isn't just a F= reeNAS issue but a FreeBSD issue - but I think it should be possible since = I can see all my apple devices happily broadcasting both IPv4 and IPv6 addr= ess for a given named service.Anyone have any insight? =
