http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=37788 Summary: Use IPv6 with APR Connectors Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.0.13 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: Connector:HTTP AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] On an IPv6-enabled host the normal Java Connectors will bind to the IPv6 unspecified address ::0 (if no address is configured for the Connector element). OTOH APR Connectors will bind only to the IPv4 unspecified address 0.0.0.0 - even on an IPv6-enabled host. IMO it shouldn't depend on the type of connector used to which address(-family) Tomcat binds. Therefore I propose to use APR_INET6 instead of APR_INET as address family when creating the APR endpoint. Since I'm in no way familiar with the Tomcat source, I'm not sure if the trivial change I made to org.apache.tomcat.util.net.AprEndpoint is the right thing at the right place. What I can say after trying out the so-patched Tomcat is the following: - On an IPv6-enabled Linux host, Tomcat's APR Connector bound to ::0. - On an IPv4-only Linux host and an IPv4-only Windows XP host, Tomcat still worked (binding to 0.0.0.0 obviously). -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
