I thought I was supposed to fix this, but I just saw it on cygwin.

Leaving this ticket here for myself to come back to it after I demo Tahoe to Seb.

Correction: it is the Solaris version of iputil that returns 0.0.0.0. The cygwin version doesn't.

So, if I just make iputil filter out all IP addresses that end in ".0", this will solve this issue, right? Is there any other filtering or munging that I should do?

(Note that iputil is intended to return non-routeable, private IP addresses, because foolscap can use those if both ends are on the same network and foolscap isn't harmed by them.)

actually, just filter out 0.0.0.0 . There are valid addresses that end in .0 (any subnet larger than /24 will have some host addresses that have 0 as a last octet).

0.0.0.0 is well-defined as a special "INADDR_ANY" address, and is never valid as a host address. So just filter out that one case.
