But, virtually any application that wants to connect() wants to also specify at least the transport protocol (TCP, UDP). That means that applications that would benefit from AI_ADDRCONFIG won't use the defaults anyway. -- Configure bugmail: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
