So the >socket_connect code needs be changed for proper IPv6 support. Test script: --------------- #!/usr/bin/php <?php $sock=socket_create(AF_INET6, SOCK_STREAM, 0); if(socket_connect($sock, $argv[1], $argv[2])) echo "Connected to ".$argv[1]." port ".$argv[2]; ?> Expected result: ---------------- If you run the script with ./phpscript 2606:4100:3880:1250::100 80 You should see "Connected to 2606:4100:3880:1250::100 port 80" Actual result: -------------- PHP Warning: socket_connect(): unable to connect [22]: Invalid argument in phpscript on line 4. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65808&edit=1
