Problem with transmission and IPv6

The problem with net-p2p/transmission-daemon and IPv6 is that transmission developers are … not willing to implement such functionality as visible from: https://trac.transmissionbt.com/ticket/4197

So the user who need to use IPv6 but NOT use IPv6 with transmission are left alone.

So you can use this quick patch:

cd /usr/ports/net-p2p/transmission-daemon ;
make extract ;
cd work/transmission-2.93/libtransmission/ ;
vi net.c

const int rc = tr_globalAddress( AF_INET6,

– have_ipv6 = ( rc >= 0 ) && ( addrlen == 16 );
+ have_ipv6 = 0; /** NO, we do not have IPv6 **/

cd ../../../ ; make deinstall install package clean ;

Enjoy your non-ipv6 enabled daemon on ipv6/ipv4 dualstack system!

It’s funny to see that in ipv6 worlds my site is 6 hop away. In ipv4 it’s 7 hops away.

Suppress warning messages using mysql from within Terminal, but password written in shell script

Here’s how I got my bash script for my daily mysqldump database backups to work more securely.
1. First use mysql_config_editor (comes with mysql 5.6+) to set up the encrypted password file. Suppose your username is „db_user“. Running from the shell prompt:

mysql_config_editor set –login-path=local –host=localhost –user=db_user –password

It prompts for the password. Once you enter it, the user/pass are saved encrypted. Of course, change „system_username“ to your username on the server.

2. Change your shell script from this:

mysqldump -u db_user -pInsecurePassword my_database | gzip > db_backup.tar.gz

to this:

mysqldump –login-path=local my_database | gzip > db_backup.tar.gz

No more exposed passwords.
