-L only binds to IPv4 127.0.0.1, not IPv6 ::1

[ygoe]

I'm trying out wstunnel with a simple netcat TCP server. Outside the ws tunnel on the local side I connect to "localhost". Netcat seems to resolve this as ::1 first but fails to connect. Then after a short delay it connects to 127.0.0.1 and then it works.

A quick check shows that wstunnel is only listening on 127.0.0.1 but not on ::1. Can this be changed? I only have the -L argument, no address for localhost.

Describe your wstunnel setup

• client: wstunnel client -L tcp://9999:127.0.0.1:2345 wss://myhostname:443
• server: doesn't matter

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows 11

I'm using the latest release wstunnel 10.1.9.

Huh? What's that? The template doesn't work. Should I just use it anyway and copy my question somewhere into it even when it doesn't make any sense?!
