I Just tried Heimdal 0.2o with the following results:

# host -t AAAA kerberos.ipv6.nxs.se
kerberos.ipv6.nxs.se IPv6 address 3ffe:240:0:face:220:afff:fe5a:a9b2

# kdc --addresses=kerberos.ipv6.nxs.se

...this gets logged to kdc.log:

2000-02-14T19:51:55 bind IPv6:a00::3ffe:240:0:face/88: Cannot assign requested address
2000-02-14T19:51:55 bind IPv6:a00::3ffe:240:0:face/88: Cannot assign requested address
2000-02-14T19:51:55 bind IPv6:a00::3ffe:240:0:face/750: Cannot assign requested address
2000-02-14T19:51:55 bind IPv6:a00::3ffe:240:0:face/750: Cannot assign requested address
2000-02-14T19:51:55 No sockets!

however, specifying an address like this:

# kdc --addresses=3ffe:240:0:face:220:afff:fe5a:a9b2

...generates the following sockets:

tcp        0      0 3ffe:240:0:face:220:750 :::*	LISTEN
tcp        0      0 3ffe:240:0:face:220::88 :::*	LISTEN
udp        0      0 4002:fe3f:cefa:0:ff:750 :::*
udp        0      0 4002:fe3f:cefa:0:ffa:88 :::*

...some kind of byteorder problem somewhere?

This is on Linux 2.2.5 with glibc 2.1.1 (redhat)
