I'm running PHP 5.1.4 on OS X. When I look at $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'], it seems to contain an ipv6 address rather than an ipv4 one (at present it's giving me 'fe80::1' instead of the usual dotted quad), and that confuses the hell out of things like MySQL's INET_ATON() function. I have ipv6 networking disabled in my network control panel, and my PHP is configured with --disable-ipv6. How can I force it to return only ipv4 addresses? Is there an ini setting somewhere?
The value in that variable is coming from the web server not PHP. I suggest you change the web server configuration so it's listening on specific v4 IPs only rather than all IPs. See the docs for your web server for details on how to do that.
