By its nature, you cannot connect to an IPv6 link local address without specifying the interface.

I have not idea of how linux exposes that feature to user space. regards, -- Sylvain _______________________________________________ lsh-bugs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lysator.liu.se/mailman/listinfo/lsh-bugs
