Darren Tucker <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |RESOLVED CC| |[email protected] Resolution|--- |WONTFIX --- Comment #1 from Darren Tucker <[email protected]> --- The "alternative" host/port syntax was added in 2001: https://anongit.mindrot.org/openssh.git/commit/?id=62c25a43dbdd0dddb872b997a6f82b4f73c79180 and removed from the documentation in 2010 (with a comment saying it no longer worked at the time) because it had been superceded by [addr]:port which had become more or less standard by then: https://anongit.mindrot.org/openssh.git/commit/?id=7fa96602e52f02e66897f98a1568cbd3a555192b It was only ever documented as working for IPv6 addresses, though. So I guess this would be classed as "unintentional change of undocumented behaviour". I don't think we can make it work again without breaking Unix domain socket forwarding, though, so I don't think there's anything we can do at this point. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching someone on the CC list of the bug.
