This seems to only apply to Tomcat 5.5.x, however. When Tomcat 7.0.20 and Tomcat 6.0.33 are run on a Windows 2008 machine without editing the config and using the (default) HTTP-APR / AJP-APR connectors, they only bind to the IPv4 "any" address. Only Tomcat 5.5.x binds to the IPv6 address, by default. Maybe 7.0.x and 6.0.x have been changed to use the IPv4 any address by default with the APR connectors, but not 5.5.x. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
