Make IPv6-support easily configurable

2     IPv6 support in rdesktop
3     ========================
4     The IPv6 support was developed by Mike Dawson <mike@dexy.mine.nu>:
5    
6     Attached is a patch to tcp.c to enable IPv6 support. Build with
7     'IPv6' defined to enable it. It's so far only been tested on
8     Linux 2.4.21 connecting to Windows XP SP1.
9    
10     Since terminal services doesn't seem to bind to the ipv6 interface
11     on XP I had to run 'netsh interface portproxy add v6tov4
12 stargo 605 listenport=3389 connectport=3389' from the windows command prompt
13 astrand 441 to get it to work.
14    
15 astrand 445
16     rdesktop now supports numeric IPv6 addresses:
17    
18     It checks for two or more colons in an address to decide what it's
19     dealing with so you can now do:
20    
21     rdesktop 2001:1:2:3::4
22 astrand 441
23 astrand 445 without it getting confused with an ipv4:port specification. I've
24     also followed the square bracket convention used by browsers
25     (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2732.txt) so if you want to specify a
26     non-standard port with an ipv6 address you can use the format:
27    
28     rdesktop [2001:1:2:3::4]:3390
