Specifying a virtual host by a hostname and registering multiple hostname's addresses in /etc/hosts should not be confusing, IMHO. If the addresses are already registered on DNS, the work is even simpler. Even specifying virtual hosts by addresses should not be confusing, because IPv4-mapped IPv6 address and the IPv4-mapped itself are certainly not the same, although they are mapped each to other. Indeed, someone could want to specify different virtual ftp hosts for IPv4 and mapped to it IPv6 addresses. For example to use different motd, welcome or statfile files. > rosti.bsd> Anyway selecthost() is called with local socket name and it checks a > rosti.bsd> local address, while his_addr.su_sin6.sin6_addr is a remote address. > rosti.bsd> Local and remote hosts have same address families but not same > rosti.bsd> addresses. > > The his_addr is referred to determine just an address family, here. > When a remote address is an IPv4-mapped IPv6 address, a local address > is as well. So, it should be okay. When a remote address is an IPv4-mapped IPv6 address, why the local IPv6 address must be of the same type and cannot be any regular IPv6 address?
