Heyho
If I try to add an SMB Storage with IPv6 via WebUI I get the error:

Code:
create storage failed: mount error: mount error: could not resolve address for [2a01:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:1:0:2]: Unknown error (500)

I think the problem is here that proxmox adding the brackets here which are not supported.

Code:
root@XXXX:~# mount.cifs //[2a01:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:1:0:2]/proxmox test
mount error: could not resolve address for [2a01:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:1:0:2]: Unknown error

root@XXXX:~# mount.cifs //2a01:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:1:0:2/proxmox test
Password for root@//2a01:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:1:0:2/proxmox:

Is there a workaround for this problem?

Greetings
Cy

My workaround for the moment:
I added a AAAA nameserver entry to a subdomain v6.smb.storage.domain.com with the IPv6 and used this one for proxmox.

But I still think this is a bug :D
