usr/sbin/nmbd = NBT, which is IPv4-only.
usr/bin/nmblookup = NBT, which is IPv4-only.

This is from an automated tool I assume. Some of these calls are in explicit IPv4-only code. Some may not be. The problem with a report like this is determining which is which.

Jeremy.
Comment 2 Andreas Schneider 2013-10-21 05:58:39 UTC 
Yes, it is an automated tool but I wanted to inspect all of them just to make sure. What I found in a quick search was in libads code and code related to 'net dns'.
Comment 3 Kai Blin 2013-10-21 10:31:28 UTC 
net dns is one of the few users of libaddns, and that's antique. :)
Adding GSS-TSIG client side support to libcli/dns is on my todo list, no promises on delivery dates, though.
Comment 4 Björn Jacke 2021-02-26 13:26:56 UTC 
net ads gethostbyname was removed with 4.14. If you still see other valid IPv6 issues, please reopen or file another bug for that.
