A possible hack: add the hybrid (or whatever it is actually called) "::ffff:127.0.0.1" ipv6 address to the "hosts allow" line. You might be able to disable ipv6 just for samba by adding bind interfaces only = yes interfaces = 127.0.0.1 host_ip_address to smb.conf -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
