Hi David, I've seen that several world daemons (rpcbind, telnetd, ...) are build with INET6. In real life, I do not know anyone who owns some IPv6 addresses but many guys who disabled INET6 on their machines in kernel. Now the daemons prints out a (IMHO useless) warning, that they cannot bind to the INET6 socket on each start. Especially on workstation, which might to be started each day, this confuses the employee (each one once, but me as admin each time). Now the question: Would a patch be welcome which enables INET6 only if /etc/make.conf not contains 'NO_INET6=true'? Best regards and nice weekend, JensReceived on Sun Aug 03 2003 - 05:07:19 UTC
