Russ said at golang-dev: -- NOT LGTM [::] is no more an IP address than 127.0.0.1:. The syntax for adding a port to an IPv6 address is [addr]:port, but the [] are not part of the addr. In addition to being consistent with the RFCs, this appears to be consistent with other Unix programs. For example, on my Mac: $ telnet '[::1]' [::1]: nodename nor servname provided, or not known $ telnet ::1 Trying ::1... telnet: connect to address ::1: Connection refused telnet: Unable to connect to remote host $ -- Makes sense. Status changed to WorkingAsIntended. |
