I have installed FreeNas on a Dell server:

Build FreeNAS-9.3-STABLE-201503270027
Platform Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU X3363 @ 2.83GHz
Memory 20448MB
System Time Sat May 30 12:05:51 PDT 2015

When I run the installation Wizard, when I get to the active directory part, it reports "Unable to find domain controllers for <domainname>.lokal.

The AD server is Win 2012r2, and I have configured a DNS record for the server which is configured with at fixed ipv4 address.
The AD server is the only server, and is DNS server!

Freenas is configured with a ipv6 address as an alias.

It is my impresion that Active Directory relies on ipv6, so I have tried to investigate this.

When I ipv4 ping from freenas with the name of the server, I get an answer.
When I ping6 with the name of the server, I get this result:

PING6(56=40+8+8 bytes) fe80::21e:c9ff:feec:2fdf%bge0 --> 2008:db8::1234:1

^C
--- servername.domainname.lokal ping6 statistics ---
272 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100.0% packet loss

When I ping -6 from the Windows server with the ipv6 address of freenas, I get an answer.
When I ping -6 with the name of the frenas server (the name is actually freenas), it says "ping request could not find host freenas".

I have configured a AAAA record with the address of the freenas server, but still the name is not resolved.


From my Windows 7 Pro Workstation, I can ping freenas succesfully - address resolution is working.

From the Windows server, I cannot ping freenas, address resolution does not Work. But I ping Works with the addresses, both ipv4 and 6.

From freenas, I can ping4 the Windows server, but ping6 gives no result.

I am stuck at the moment, and would be gratefull for any suggestion to resolve this problem.

Regards.

I have realized that ipv6 probably is misconfigured, I'll look into that asap.
Don't bother with any suggestions.

Thanks.
