ipv6

I'm trying to get cherrypy to talk on my computers ipv6
interface. I
found these to related items by searching:
http://www.cherryp
y.org/ticket/388,
http://www.che
rrypy.org/changeset/843. They seem to say that ipv6 is
supported by cherrypy, but give no instruction regarding
setting it up.

Ive tried these to configs, but got an exception. *Note
hostname maps
to a ipv6 address via DNS

cherrypy.config.update({'server.socketHost': '[::]'})
cherrypy.config.update({'server.socketHost':
'hostname'})

Exception in thread Thread-1:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/threading.py", line
442, in __bootstrap
    self.run()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/threading.py", line

    self.__target(*self.__args, **self.__kwargs)

er.py",
line 308, in start

gaierror: (-2, 'Name or service not known')

Does anyone know if this really does work, and how you go
about setting
it up?

Thanks for any help!

Hi,

I just tested with a reasonably new svn revision and using
server.socket_host = "::1"
seems to work just fine (server.socketHost should also
work).
