here is an email that i was in the process of writing.... i just uploaded a new snapshot @ http://matt-massie.com/ganglia/
i think this will solve our 0.0.0.0 problem (mostly).
can you try this out and see how it works for you martin et al?
here is the new problem that i think we'll have on hosts with both IPv6
and IPv4 interfaces....
it's possible that a IPv4 client connects to the IPv6 port. in that
case.. the name of the client will to translated from IPv4 to IPv6. the
trusted_hosts attribute needs to provide that logic.
let me know what you find. if you have problems connecting... can you
run in debug_mode (or check your logs) to see what host gmond "thinks"
is connecting and being rejected.
.......... end of old e-mail ................
your results are exactly what i would have expected. your server is
binding to you IPv6 interface but it is getting connected to by in IPv4
client. when that happens... is converts the IPv4 address to IPv6
notation.
so "127.0.0.1" becomes "::ffff:127.0.0.1" etc
today i finally got a solaris box setup for development and testing. i
should be able to get solaris fixes sooner. i'm trying to track down
some IPv6 hosts that i have access to to try out IPv6 stuff.
i'm sure we can get this working soon. i'm surprised adding the IPv6
addresses didn't fix your problem. i'll look at this more tomorrow
sometime.
