Hi everyone, I was working on making rwhod ipv6 clean. I have done some work so far but then I realised I can't receive ipv4 connections on AF_INET6 sockets. On googling I found its insecure and freebsd disables it by default. [1] I needed some advice on what would be the best way to receive connections then? Should I use 2 separate sockets with conditions? [1] https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/92081/is-receiving-ipv4-connections-on-af-inet6-sockets-insecure Kind Regards, Mihir
