--UlVJffcvxoiEqYs2 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-2 Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Greetings All. Tell me please is it normal what i get? 1. I open socket AF_INET6/SOCK_DGRAM... OK 2. bind it to ::ffff:127.0.0.1/53... OK 3. recvfrom() data from the socket... OK 4. *from (the 5th parameter to recvfrom) gets filled in like it was a sockaddr_in (ipv4) structure which means that senders address is in sin6_flowinfo instead of sin6_addr. Now this makes somehow more difficult to use inet_ntop since first one has to check sin6_family and decide wether to pass sin6_addr or sin6_flowinfo as an address to print. Did I miss something in manual? Cheers. --=20 |/ |_, _ .- --, Ju=BF z ka=BFdej strony pe=B3zn=B1, potworne =BF= =B1dze |__ |_|. | \ |_|. ._' /_.
