Re^3: Enhancing Net::SFTP (& Net::SSH) to support IPv6

[VinsWorldcom]

I considered that, but according to rt://96147, there is already an IPv6 feature request for Net::SSH2 regarding IO::Socket::IP that's over a year old.

I went that route with Net::Telnet author Jay Rogers around 2012 - talking to him first before filing a bug. He was very responsive, pointed me towards the '-fhopen' temporary fix and had test code to me in a week or two and eventually Net::Telnet version 3.04 which supports IPv6 directly.

Well, I am organizing a Perl & SSH hackathon in this year YAPC::Europe in Granada, and Net::SSH2 is going to be one of the main targets. Patches will be revised and applied!

BTW, everybody interested in the matter is invited to participate, physically there or by IRC!
