Binding to IPv6 and IPv4 interfaces simultaneously

10/27/2025, 12:54 AMHello, is there a way to have lldap bind to both IPv4 and IPv6 interfaces at the same time? I am running a dual-stack network at home and I would like lldap to be accessible both over IPv4 and IPv6. I tried setting "::" as the bind address as per the note in the config file, but this binds only to IPv6. Is there a way to get both?
I am currently running lldap in a FreeBSD VM if that helps.
