Can I do that? If so, how? Sort of. Agent is currently hard-coded to use TCP4ClientEndpoint or SSL4ClientEndpoint; the factory that it uses to generate these endpoints is not publicly exposed. However, Agent passes a reactor, so you can implement your own reactor (probably a wrapper) that implements connectTCP and connectSSL to resolve and connect IPv6 names, and that will work just fine, and you will be using only public APIs, so it's supported :). Does that make sense? At some point, Agent should be modified to use <http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/4859>, once that's done and committed to trunk. I don't know if a ticket exists to do that yet. If you have already checked and there isn't, please feel free to file one. -glyph _______________________________________________ Twisted-Python mailing list Twisted-Python@twistedmatrix.com http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-python
