No problem, just two hours ago, Christian and me decided to drop the idea of oob/tcp6 and go on with only one oob-tcp-component. It shouldn't be that hard and I'll try it tonight or tomorrow. > Can we just have one component that handles both ivp4 and ivp6? Yes.

Just check for struct sockaddr_in6 and add -DIPV6 to the CFLAGS. This flag is currently needed by opal/util/if.* and orte/mca/oob/tcp/*, so one might limit it to the two corresponding makefiles. We can also set/define IPV6 in something_config.h. It'd also be a good idea to have a --disable-ipv6 configure flag. -- mail: a...@thur.de http://adi.thur.de PGP: v2-key via keyserver Die Nase ist die Bohrinsel des kleinen Mannes
