Thanks. So how Jim.Pirzyk> does this patch work in that getaddrinfo came from the KAME Jim.Pirzyk> project. Do we have to wait for the vendor branch to be Jim.Pirzyk> upgraded with a new version of KAME that has this fix or Jim.Pirzyk> should we patch getaddrinfo ourselves? I wish too see all gethostbyname() will be replaced by getaddrinfo() in the future. I believe it is worth to get rid of the obstacles to achieve it. I'll discuss with KAME guys about how to deal with it, then I'll commit it into FreeBSD. Jim.Pirzyk> Also in the future, how would we support sorting IPv6 Jim.Pirzyk> addresses (we are currently not running IPv6, but eventually Jim.Pirzyk> I would think we may have to move there). There is a discussion in IPng. Please refer draft-ietf-ipngwg-default-addr-select. There is an experimental implementation of it in KAME repo. -- Hajimu UMEMOTO @ Internet Mutual Aid Society Yokohama, Japan ume@mahoroba.org ume@bisd.hitachi.co.jp ume@{,jp.}FreeBSD.org http://www.imasy.org/~ume/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
