From: snacktime Date: 2006-10-30T10:28:48+09:00 Subject: ipv6 connection attempted before ipv4 I've noticed that when using net/http, and probably with any ip/udp socket connection, it attempts to connect via ipv6 and when that fails it falls back to ipv4. Is this due to the underlying socket library on freebsd, or is it a ruby issue? Both client and server are freebsd. Chris
