shellinaboxd should support IPv6 connections.

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Run shellinaboxd
2. Attempt to connect to host on port 4200 via IPv6

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Connection to shellinaboxd, instead I see a connection refused error.
netstat shows nothing listening on ::4200

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
ShellInABox version 2.10 (revision 186)
Fedora 15

Please provide any additional information below.
Shell in a box is awesome! :-)

I applied the patch on version 2.14 and also modified the code at line 849 of 
file  libhttp/httpconnection.c :

#BEFORE:

      if (ch != '-' && ch != '.' &&
          (ch < '0' ||(ch > '9' && ch < 'A') ||
          (ch > 'Z' && ch < 'a')||(ch > 'z' && ch <= 0x7E))) {
        httpSendReply(http, 400, "Bad Request", NO_MSG);
        return HTTP_DONE;
      }

#AFTER:

      if (ch != '[' && ch != ']' && ch != '-' && ch != '.' &&
         (ch < '0' || (ch > '9' && ch < 'A') ||
         (ch > 'Z' && ch < 'a') || (ch > 'z' && ch <= 0x7E)))
      {
        //debug("Error, Host [%s]\n", host);
        httpSendReply(http, 400, "Bad Request", NO_MSG);
        return HTTP_DONE;
      }

Greetings.
