Can't connect to local yackage server

On Mac OS X 10.6.7, after upgrading to yackage 0.1.0.1: After running yackage -l, I cannot connect to it even directly from localhost. I get the message: This Yackage server only talks to local clients On a Linux server it seems to work fine though. On the Mac, when I do "telnet localhost" I get: Trying ::1... Could it be that yackage 0.1.0.1 doesn't recognize the IPv6 notion of localhost? Thanks, Yitz

Firstly, the checking-localhost-code in Yackage *is* broken for IPv6. I've just pushed some changes to Warp to make the situation a little better for specifying listening hosts, but that's not coming out most likely until Warp 0.4. However, it doesn't sound like your problem is caused by the mis-behaving Yackage code: it *should* give you a "permission denied" error message. Does the connection work if you just run yackage normally, i.e. without -l? Michael

Yes, as a work-around I'm running it without -l, with the firewall set to block incoming connections to the port. It's working fine that way. Thanks, Yitz
