1The IPV6 code is enabled by uncommenting
2
3IPV6 = -DHAVE_IPV6

5Check your system specific make line for the entry IPV6="$(IPV6)"; it has not
6been added to most yet.

8The code was tested on Solaris 8 Beta.  A single tcpd binary supports
9IPV6 and IPV4 sockets as well as TLI (v4/v6).
10
11The code successfully compiles on Solaris 7 + playground.sun.com IPV6 patch,
12but I have not tested the binary.
13
14The code also compiles on AIX using "-DHAVE_IPV6 -DUSE_GETHOSTBYNAME2"
15
16The KILL_IPOPTIONS option doesn't work.  (Something to do with IPV4 addresses
17mapped inside IPV6 sockets)
18
19The code extends the hosts.{allow,deny} syntax in a minor way.  You can
20now specify IPV6 address, like this:
21
22		# Ipv6 numeric address
23		someservice: [x:x:x::x]
24		# Ipv6 network
25		otherservice: [x:x:x::x/prefix]
26
27
28Note that the "[" and "]" are part of the syntax; no whitespace is allowed
29inside the [].
30
31The datastructures have been modified such that we hope that
32libwrap binary compatibility is maintained.
33
34The original tcp_wrappers-7.6 files have been renamed and have a .org
35extension; only this file (README.ipv6) was added.
