Package: tinc Version: 1.0.8-1 Severity: wishlist In my syslog I get the following line from tinc: Aug 30 09:27:37 jupiter tinc.planets[4052]: Can't bind to 0.0.0.0 port 655/tcp: Address already in use
lsof shows that tinc is using an IPv6 socket to make IPv4 connections instead (IP's censored by me) tincd 4052 root 5u IPv6 11926 TCP *:tinc (LISTEN) tincd 4052 root 7u IPv6 35204 TCP 192.168.xxx.xxx:tinc->xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:42613 (ESTABLISHED) Apparently, binding a socket to the ipv6 adress :: will also bind it to the ipv4 address 0.0.0.0 unless /proc/sys/net/ipv6/bindv6only is set to 1. It would be nice if tincd would not explicitly bind to 0.0.0.0 or if it would not a pointless warning in this case. I reported the same issue against openssh-server in Bug#439661.
