Using IPV6 addresses in krb5.conf - kerberos v1.8

[Dieter, Mark]

Hi,

I need to support IPV6 addresses with port number in the krb5.conf file.
The form would be something like: "kdc = [1234:5678::6789]:88"

I am working with the Kerberos 1.8 alpha release. It does not appear to
like this form of IPV6 addressing. IPV4 does work nicely.

 

Should IPV6 addresses in the form [1234:5678::6789]:88 work in krb5.conf
? Am I doing something wrong ?

 

Thanks,
