Solaris is a little bit tricky, i would be very careful talking about it. I've tried opensolaris and it is not posix by default, many calls behave in a non-posix way because they were introduced in solaris before they were introduced in posix, so they have different parameters or semantic.
To have posix in solaris, one must use a bunch of flags at compile-time, for example: -D_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS -lsocket -lnsl After having enabled the posix compatibility, it works as expected on posix with ipv6only=0. The bug is bsd-only. Bye -- Salvo Tomaselli -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
