Description of problem: On and ipv4/ipv6 network, where the DNS server resolves hostnames both to ipv4 and ipv6 addresses, Samba does not fall back to ipv4 if an ipv6 LDAP connection to a Windows Active Directory server fails. ipv6 LDAP connections to Windows 2003 Servers fail with "connection refused", because Windows 2003 Server supports ipv6, but its Active Directory LDAP service does not. Samba should retry the connection using ipv4 but does not. This results in Samba being unable to find the logon server in a domain. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): samba-3.4.2-0.42.fc11.i586 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Join a Samba 3.4 client to a Windows 2003 AD domain using ipv4 2. Enable ipv6 on Windows 2003 DC and Samba 3.4 member server 3. configure both A and AAAA records for the DC's hostname 4. net ads testjoin -S dc-hostname Actual results: 2009/11/04 14:29:47, 0] utils/net_ads.c:279(ads_startup_int) ads_connect: No logon servers Join to domain is not valid: No logon servers Expected results: Join is OK Additional info: Side effect of this problem is that winbind fails too, as can be expected. However, winbind, when not stopped, will consume all open file resources, effectively bringing the server down. Removing the AAAA records for the DC's DNS hostname fixes all these problem, leaving the DC impossible to find using ipv6.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 11. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '11'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 11's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.

According to upstream's bugzilla, this issue is fixed in samba 3.5 It therefore remains a problem in Fedora 12, and will be fixed in Fedora 13.
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component.
