Eggdrop 1.6.15 --enable-ipv6 Linux listen socket problem

Post by andax »

Eggdrop 1.6.15 when configured with --enable-ipv6 doesn't bind a listening socket to the port specified in the config file (listen 12345 all), no matter wether I specify the my-ip and/or the my-hostname parameters in the config file or not, so I can't telnet to the bot.

- it works when compiling without ipv6 support.
- netstat -nlp |grep portnumber returns nothing.
- at startup it displays the "Listening at telnet port 12345 (all)" message
- i can dcc chat to the bot, but can't telnet.
- i have protect-telnet set to 0

.dccstat output:
<bot> SOCK ADDR PORT NICK HOST TYPE
<bot> ---- -------- ----- --------- ----------------- ----
<bot> 0 00000000 12345 (telnet) * lstn 12345

+ sometimes it complains about some un-allocated socket 0 or what :)

thanks for any help
