Description of problem: Netstat is unable to print full ipv6 addresses. More, it's unable to print ipv4 on ipv6 sockets adresses (::ffff:a.b.c.d addresses). Output formatting of netstat is trashed. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: IPV6 is enabled. Some ipv6 client connect on the ipv6 server. In the same time, ipv4 client connects on processes using ipv6 sockets. Command used: netstat -n Actual Results: tcp 0 0 ::ffff:10.200.200.10:22 ::ffff:10.200.200.:3155 ESTABLISHED tcp 0 298 2001:abc:def::100:3378 3ffe:501:4819:2000:2:80 ESTABLISHED You see somethings lacks at the end of each foreign address. Expected Results: tcp 0 0 ::ffff:10.200.200.10:22 ::ffff:10.200.200.111:3155 ESTABLISHED tcp 0 298 2001:abc:def::100:3378 3ffe:501:4819:2000:2000:203:47ff:fea5:3085:80 ESTABLISHED Addresses are complete! Additional info: This bug renders netstat useless if ipv6 is in use.
The space of IPv6 adress was extended in net-tools-1.60-40. There won't be a backport to RH9.
