IPV6 socket bind error(99)
Hi
I am using RedHat linux-2.4.21-40.EL with IPV6 enabled. I have written a sample Client and Server program using the IPv6 compatible socket calls. When I give the IPV6 address, i am getting the below error: Socket bind Error (99): cannot assign requested address. Can anyone help on this problem? why iam getting that error. Waiting for the reply.... |
First: you might get more help if you posted a short but complete listing of code that contains the error.
Second: Are you running the program as root? |
Which port number are you using? Or you can test it yourself like osor suggest. Run the program as root. It it binds correctly, your normal user cannot bind to that port.

error:99
I am running as a ROOT.

Are you sure you're assigning a correct IPv6 address? Please show the code, if possible.
