Hi Jeff Trawick,


I am presently implementing transparency in Apache source code. So the
strange thing I noticed that while binding to a non-local IP prior to
connect (), the remote addr(i.e. the client_addr) it binds to is in the IPv4
mapped address whereas the socket descriptor created is IPv4 type only. As a
result of this I couldn’t able to bind to the non-local IP.


The work around I tried is manipulating the bits of IPv4 mapped address, but
I don’t feel it to be convincing.


Regards,

Puneet Mohan
