Hello,
I was compiling the code tree for Kerberos 1.4.3 on HPUX 11.00 without IPv6 and
discovered that localaddr.c parses INET6 address even though it is not supposed
to do so for IPv4, which generates a build failure. I had to add if statements
in the c code to get around the failure, and I thought that you would like to
know, since there really is not any other way to fix it.
<snip>
#if defined(KRB5_USE_INET6)
case AF_INET6:
return CMPTYPE (struct sockaddr_in6, sin6_addr);
#endif
<snip>
/* Okay, this is kind of odd. We have to use each of the address
families we care about, because with an AF_INET socket, extra
interfaces like hme0:1 that have only AF_INET6 addresses will
cause errors. Similarly, if hme0 has more AF_INET addresses
than AF_INET6 addresses, we won't be able to retrieve all of
the AF_INET addresses if we use an AF_INET6 socket. Since
neither family is guaranteed to have the greater number of
addresses, we should use both.
If it weren't for this little quirk, we could use one socket of
any type, and ask for addresses of all types. At least, it
seems to work that way. */
#if defined(KRB5_USE_INET6)
static const int afs[] = { AF_INET, AF_NS, AF_INET6 };
#else
static const int afs[] = { AF_INET, AF_NS };
#endif
