If not, do more recent kernels?

I'm using Fedora 13.

Thanks,
Ben

Yes. We tested at connectathon with Fedora.

Should work if configured properly.

How about as a server?  It doesn't seem to listen on IPv6
addresses.  I tried 2.6.36-rc2+ kernel as well.

I tried setting /etc/exports to look like this:

[root@localhost ~]# more /etc/exports
/exports/tmp [2002::0/16](rw)

[root@localhost ~]# netstat -an|grep LISTEN |grep 2049
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:2049                0.0.0.0:*                   LISTEN

I'm trying to test some NFS/IPv6 client changes, but I need
at least a minimal IPv6 server to test against!

Thanks,
Ben

Not quite  -- we tested an earlier version of Chuck's mountd/exportfs
patches at Connectathon. Those are still not merged yet in mainline
nfs-utils.

For now, no Linux distro that I know of has server-side IPv6 support.
Once Chuck finishes posting his patches for mountd and exportfs, and
those are merged in mainline nfs-utils, it will.

The kernel is pretty much IPv6-ready though, so once you have a
suitably enabled nfs-utils it should work. If you want to play with
the patches for this, you can pull down Chuck's git repo from here:

http://git.linux-nfs.org/?p=cel/nfs-utils.git;a=summary
