For bugs matching the following criteria: Status: In Progress Changed: (is less than) 2014-06-01 Reset to default assignee and clear in-progress tags. Mail being skipped There's a single binary: % ls -i /sbin/ping 3749407 /sbin/ping % ls -i /sbin/ping6 3749407 /sbin/ping6 % <https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/advanced-networking/#_troubleshooting> refers to <https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=ping&sektion=8&format=html> for ping(8). From <https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=ping&sektion=8&manpath=FreeBSD#DESCRIPTION>: > … the specific IP versioncan be requested by -4 or -6 options, respectively. > For backwards-compatibility, ICMPv6 can also be selected by invoking > the binary as ping6. … (In reply to Graham Perrin from comment #2) Noting they're still separate in 12.x. [pauamma@gadfly] ~% ls -li /sbin/ping* 657235 -r-sr-xr-x 1 root wheel 32552 Feb 9 2021 /sbin/ping 657237 -r-sr-xr-x 1 root wheel 41456 Feb 9 2021 /sbin/ping6 I'm gonna close this since ping supports IPv6. I put overcome by events, maybe not the best status. |
