Hi Erich, This should be fixed in 3.1 final:
Changelog between 3.1b2 and 3.1b3: patch to fix "ping: can't create raw socket: Address family not supported by protocol" whilst trying to ping/connect to a host from /etc/hosts and ipv6 module is not loaded.

When I have an entry for a > remote system in /etc/hosts which is _not_ present in DNS I get first an > IPv6 address from the resolver. Mind you, I don't use IPv6. > > > Could someone verify this in 3.1 final > > > Here some details: > > > innerwall# uname -a Linux innerwall 2.4.34 #1 Tue Jan 23 20:12:21 CET 2007 > i686 unknown innerwall# cat /etc/issue LEAF Bering-uClibc 3.1 Rev 2 uClibc > 0.9.28 \n \l > innerwall# > > innerwall# uname -a Linux innerwall 2.4.34 #1 Tue Jan 23 20:12:21 CET 2007 > i686 unknown innerwall# cat /etc/issue LEAF Bering-uClibc 3.1 Rev 2 uClibc > 0.9.28 \n \l > innerwall# > > innerwall# ping chameleon PING chameleon (c0a8:d324:e0f6:ffbf::): 56 data > bytes ping: can't create raw socket: Address family not supported by > protocol > > innerwall# nslookup chameleon Server: 192.168.254.31 > Address 1: 192.168.254.31 ad1.asp.ruf.ch > > > Name: chameleon > Address 1: c0a8:d324:f7:ffbf:: > Address 2: 192.168.211.36 chameleon > > > innerwall# cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost > 192.168.211.36 chameleon > > > # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts > #::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback > #fe00::0 ip6-localnet > #ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix > #ff02::1 ip6-allnodes > #ff02::2 ip6-allrouters > #ff02::3 ip6-allhosts > > > cheers > > Erich > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft > Defy all challenges.
