Lighttpd

I've got an IPv4 & IPv6 varnishd with a 127.0.0.1 lighttpd backend, I can succesfully trust 127.0.0.1, but when connecting from an IPv6 address such as ....:CB76 inside the logs and PHP I see it as 0.0.0.76.

try "cat /proc/sys/net/ipv6/bindv6only", which should be set to 1, if set to 0 its using kind of ipv4-over-ipv6 (dunno the correct wording atm.) and use $HTTP["socket"] "[::]:80" and $HTTP["socket"] ":80" to bind on v6 and v4 seperately (might interfere with server.use-ipv6 = "enable", so comment this out first).

Dunno if this really solves your problem, but atleast v4 and v6 work independent from each other. Look at the logs, it should have "real" v4/v6 ip-adresse logged.

@nitrox: this bug isn't about IPv6 support in lighttpd (that works great for me), this is about supporting (even in a purely-IPv4 lighttpd) IPv6 addresses in X-Forwarded-For field in mod_extforward: right now it parses them (incorrectly) just like IPv4, giving weird 0.0.0.x addresses as opposed as the correct address.
PS: I'm using FreeBSD so what you suggest would be translated as "sysctl net.inet6.ip6.v6only=1", but that've been the default value on FreeBSD for a while already...

I can confirm the patch is perfectly working.

I've download and patched my lighttpd and is correctly showing IPV6 now.

You can check this by connecting from a ipv6 address to: [[http://www.luigilauro.it]]

You will see your correct IPV6 address.

THank you lapo for the very easy, but VERY MUCH NEEDED patch!
