------------------- First part of my message was chopped off for some reason... Very odd, reposting again hopefully the hole message posts this time... ------------------- https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=102409 Also should ASSP be using IO::Socket::INET6 or IO::Socket::IP? I think when perl lacked support for IPv6 you had to use the add on module, IO::Socket::INET6. But it seems that IO::Socket::IP supports both, so why the need for IO::Socket::INET6? I am pretty sure the issue I ran into is specific to IO::Socket::INET6. Again I am not that familiar with perl, but pretty sure I am using and calling that explicitly. Its not a conflict with IO::Socket::INET6, causing the listeners in my example code to fail. Thus the same issue with ASSP failing to listen on both IPv4 and IPv6 wildcards. I am not sure many are even using IO::Socket::INET6. If ASSP code can switch from IO::Socket::INET6 to IO::Socket::IP that might resolve the issue with wildcard listeners on IPv4 and IPv6. Otherwise seems it won't be addressed till it is fixed by upstream in IO::Socket::INET6. It looks like IO::Socket::INET6 is a dead module, no changes since 2013. https://metacpan.org/source/SHLOMIF/IO-Socket-INET6-2.72/ChangeLog Maybe ASSP should deprecate its usage and switch code to IO::Socket::IP. https://metacpan.org/pod/IO::Socket::IP https://www.perl.org/about/whitepapers/perl-ipv6.html -- William L.
