Why does the Web Server using tcp6 ?

[sw2wolf]

$mighty example.conf example.route
Serving on port 8000

$netstat -na|grep -i 8000
tcp6       0      0 *.8000                 *.*                    LISTEN

But i want to use tcp4. I am not sure what the problem is. There are nothing in example.* files relative to tcp6.

(Web Server is http://www.mew.org/~kazu/proj/mighttpd/en/ )

Best Regards!

You disable tcp6 in the config file AFAIK. I use www/lighttpd for example, and the config file has:

server.use-ipv6 = "disable"

I looked for something similar for mighty but it is not very evident. I think it should have a similar setting in the config so maybe that's where you can start looking.

I cannot find setting in mighty config too.
After

#sysctl -w [color="Red"]net.inet6.ip6.v6only[/color]=0

then i can use ipv4 now !
