Greetings!
I am trying to use an ipv6-only database server inside my exim4 config. But I'm unable to get the correct syntax for mysql_servers.
I already tried the following (assuming fd00::2 is the ipv6 address of the database server):
hide mysql_servers = fd00::2/database/user/password
which results in: Unknown server host 'fd00'.
":" is used a list separator, in order to define multiple servers (backup facility), so I thought, I would simply change the separator to a different one:
hide mysql_servers = <; fd00::2/database/user/password
The result stays the same.
Putting parenthesis or quotes around the ipv6 address doesn't work as well.
Creating an /etc/hosts entry as follows:
fd00::2 server
and using the following exim config:
hide mysql_servers = server/database/user/password
works. I'm able to connect to the database.
But i would like to explicitly define the ip address inside the config file.
Is this currently possible?
