I don't think so. BIO_new_connect() (and BIO_get_host_ip() which it calls) only deal in IPv4 addresses. As far as I know, though, you should be able to make an IPv6 socket connection yourself, pass it to BIO_new_socket(), and have it work. It's just the hostname/address lookup that is address-family specific. (Oddly, the server side of things (accept() etc.) seems to have been extended to support IPv6 already.) ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
