Eggdrop using default IPv6-address

Post by induction »

Hi.

I compiled Eggdrop 1.6.19+ctcpfix with the IPv6-patch, but I can't seem to get the IPv6-address set properly.

Currently my eggdrop.conf has these lines:

Code: Select all

set my-ip6 "my-ipv6-address"
set my-hostname6 "my-ipv6-hostname"
If I type "nslookup -q=AAAA my-ipv6-address" it gives me my-ipv6-hostname, and if I type "nslookup -q=AAAA my-ipv6-hostname" it gives me my-ipv6-address. But when I connect to a IPv6-enabled IRC-server my hostname seems to be the default IPv6-hostname (and therefore the default IPv6-address), which in this case is v6.myserviceprovider.com.

Am I doing something wrong or is there a bug?

Yes. Still the same.

ipv6 ip use

When that has happened to me in the past, every single time it was because the ip wasn't correctly added to the interface. You should check that if you haven't already. Sorry I have no other advice. :/
