Well, let's not do that then. But don't they have to use IPv4 or IPv6 to process the resolve? Or do they just ask the Exit? > f63b322a77e41942546675f5229e134f50fc4b63 > > So if I understand correctly, this is a behavior change: NATD and Trans ports will no longer allow IPv6 traffic by default. Is that right? Oops, we don't want that. I think it's better to set these defaults when we process the port configuration line, because otherwise they override the settings in the port configuration itself (you can't turn IPv6 off, at least in the onion- only case, and maybe other cases as well). This is complicated by the fact that port configs are initialised in 3 different places. It will be easier to keep the NATD and Trans behaviour if that's refactored into one place. Un-assigning from me because I'm not sure if I can do this patch before 0.2.9. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/18693#comment:14> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online _______________________________________________ tor-bugs mailing list tor-bugs@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-bugs
