Because ssh is not compiled with --with-ipv4-default.
--with-ipv4-default Use IPv4 by connections unless '-6' specified
bma@kalgan [~/debian/packages/ssh/openssh-2.2.0p1]: grep ipv4 debian/rules
bma@kalgan [~/debian/packages/ssh/openssh-2.2.0p1]:
In the openssh diff.gz it seems like the ssh maintainer is trying to force
IPV4_DEFAULT in the defines, but I know this has bitten at least one other
person I know of...I don't know why the ssh maint is just not using the
configure option.
Phil, perhaps you can shed some light on this?
