IPv6 ssh remote tunnel not provide data on Win11

[Rar9]

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?:

Yes, ssh tunnel was connected with putty. Microsoft Windows said its not their fault.

• VS Code Version: last version
• OS Version: win 11

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Installation ssh remote extension
2. Connect to Ubuntu 22.04 plesk server where IPv6 is also used

SSH will connect, tunnel is established.

localhost:port is not receiving any data, as if ::1:port to localhost:port is the issue

The same with ipv4 works.

Technically, that works when localhost is removed from the ::1 abbreviation in /etc/hosts hence making localhost to resolve to 127.0.0.1 on the server. Otherwise the application is mapped on ::1:<port> and thus can't be proxied over the ssh tunnel.

Having IPv6 configured on the Windows 11 desktop won't help.

Yes, its a hack to remove ipv6 localhost, but I need to get the node.js app to send data via ipv4 .

It seams if ipv4 & ipv6 is ipv6 is prioritized over ipv4.

But with ipv6 localhost in /etc/hosts, ONLY the connection is established, logging server will show website data, but NO ACTUAL data is passed through the tunnel when its connect.

So is it a Windows 11 Issue?

I don't quite understand the issue, are you trying to set up a forwarded port with ipv6 after connecting, and that isn't working? If that's it, I see microsoft/vscode-remote-release#7029
