removing IPv6 could cause trouble
Authored by: cilly on Jul 23, '04 03:21:23PM

There is one thing I can not agree with this report, to remove IPv6 from the flag.

It depends on the service, i.e. FakeIdentd needs the flag IPv6, without that flag the service won't launch at all.

Yes, I agree that it depends on the service - and in what notation you're specifying access controls. If you're using IPv4 notation to lock down services, then the IPv6 flag must be disabled. I haven't yet tried enabling IPv6 and using v6 addresses to specify the access controls, but I'd expect this to work.
