Crash when pinging a port on an IPv6 host #51

Closed craigo- closed 3 years ago

craigo- commented 3 years ago

When attempting to contact a host on a specific port, e.g. hostname:80, and the hostname resolves to an IPv6 address, vmPing crashes to desktop.

Wrapping the IPv6 address in square brackets and appending the port (as per RFC3986), e.g. [ipv6Addr]:80, results in the message "Unable to resolve hostname".

Sending a regular ICMP ping to the hostname or the IPv6 address (via vmPing or command line), works as expected. Using vmPing to connect to an IPv4 address on port 80 also works as expected.
