Hi Wichert, The IP makes no sense, because 0.0.0.0 is strictly speaking correct as the IP value, since the process is listening on all interfaces. At that point we have no progress at all. 0.0.0.0 doesn't tell the viewer anything about what server it came from, either. If you were to somehow determine a physical IP then you may confuse the admin who wanted the process to listen on all interfaces, but then gets told only about one. As a compromise I used the FQDN instead of an IP. Putting both a name and an IP into that field violates the RFC[1]. jens [1] https://bugs.launchpad.net/zope2/+bug/143533/comments/1 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (Darwin) iEYEARECAAYFAkw9zRcACgkQRAx5nvEhZLLYuACgkh+O8jI2WX11NN8ZkDnhYVMi he8An3mpxVL4ENVb/s6uMX75JB5/zY9B =7AdY -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
