Back in June I posted strange behavior by busybox/ping, but nothing has changed. I'd like to repost the problem (thoughts, anyone?):
-------> 3.1 busybox/ping behaves like ping6... ...when I ping anything in /etc/hosts I've been using 3.1 for a while but just noticed this: ping localhost PING localhost (7f00:1:60ea:ffbf::): 56 data bytes ping: can't create raw socket: Address family not supported by protocol (ping something-else-in-/etc/hosts ... same as above) This is the same behaviour as ping6. Why is this happening? Also, I cannot send mail either: echo "test"| mail -s "Test Mail" -d mydomain.net -h smtp.inmyhostsfile.net to [EMAIL PROTECTED] nc: socket: Address family not supported by protocol Error: Unknown response. RSET 0: Aborting due to connection error Killing child processes: 8309 8310 I have ping from a mandrake installation, which I renamed to ping4. No problems pinging anything in the hosts file. I have a bread & butter bering-uclibc 3.1 floppy installation and host-file ping/name resolution is messed up there too. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
