Issue with the Connection over IPv6 on a Hetzner Server with SolusVM
I recently rented a server from Hetzner and installed SolusVM. However, I'm encountering an issue when I try to connect to the server using putty ( Almalinux) and RDP (Windows 2022)over an IPv6 address. Each time I attempt to connect, I receive an error message.
2a01:xxx:xxxx:xxxx::4
[2a01:xxx:xxxx:xxxx::4]
2a01-xxx-xxxx-xxxx--4.ipv6-literal.net
Has anyone else experienced a similar issue? If so, how did you resolve it? I would appreciate any guidance or suggestions on how to troubleshoot this problem

I don't see any error message in your post.
Is the server listening on the IPv6 address and the expected port?
Is there any firewall blocking the connection?
I used all three connections below, but I could not connect to the server.
2a01:xxx:xxxx:xxxx::4
[2a01:xxx:xxxx:xxxx::4]
2a01-xxx-xxxx-xxxx--4.ipv6-literal.net
Normally there is no problem with VNC. Each virtual machine is connected to the internet, but I do not know how to define ipv6 to Putty and RDP. I tried all three options above but could not connect.
How do you enter ipv6 into putty and RDP?
In PuTTY it works using addresses with and without square brackets.
both work for example.
I don't understand the mistake here
Windows RDP does not fully support RDP, can be hit and miss at times.
Some only allow IPv4 if both IPv4 and IPv6 exists at same time.
