eggdrop .15 problem with ipv4 and ipv6

Post by rfnj »

This is an odd one, haven't been able to find a solution searching forums (or google for that matter) so I thought I'd drop a line here.

After a normal ipv6 compile and install
./configure --enable-ipv6
./make
./make install DEST=/foo

It only binds and listens on the ipv6 address specified in the config file, not the ipv4 address. I was going to post about .16 but I see that IPv6 was removed and is being reworked.

Buggy or not, it's what I'm forced to use right now. The bot connects to IRC just fine, but cannot connect to the botnet since the hub bot is not IPv6 enabled.

Am I missing something or is there a work around to get the bot to listen on v4 and v6 ports?

OS is OpenBSD 3.5 (sparc64)

Just a note, the above isn't accurate in description of the problem.

The bot connects to the botnet just fine, since it's the leaf connecting to the hub.

However, the bot does not listen on the ipv4 ports as stated -- so I cannot telnet to it for the console etc.
