The patch did actually work, i was just mislead by a false statement by Marco d'Itri in the comments of /etc/sysctl.d/bindv6only.conf
> # When IPV6_V6ONLY is enabled, daemons interested in both IPv4 and IPv6 > # connections must open two listening sockets. > # This is the default behaviour of all modern operating systems. This comment suggested that the only way to have a server listening to IPv4 and 6 connections was to use two sockets. So i assumed the patch wasn't going to work because of that. In fact i was wrong, the error was in the documentation and not in the patch. I am still convinced that rather then changing the default behavior of the Linux kernel (which is compliant to the informational RFC-3493), the default behavior of kFreeBSD should be changed instead. At some point netbase's mantainer decided that the default behavior of kFreeBSD is more important than the default one of the other systems, so the many must comply to the one. I ignore on what basis he did this decision. Anyway, I've backported the patch to weborf 0.11 and the updated version should be available anytime soon. -- Salvo Tomaselli -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
