No, that doesn't make sense to me.

ppc64 supports both little endian (which is compatible to x86 -- and as it works
on x86, it's highly doubtful this is a little endian issue) and big endian
(i.e., network byte order), the latter one being the default.

From what I gathered skimming the code, no conversion is taking place
(understandble, as inet_ntoa does only create a string with the dotted quad IPv4
address from an address in _network byte order_.)

Generally, nobody needs the address in binary form in host byte order.


Sebastien, how are you connecting? Via an IPv4 address, or via a host name? Does
the host name by any chance contain multiple addresses?


(Though I might like to add, that actually debugging this issue really requires
being able to reproduce the issue, recompiling nx with debug info and attaching
a debugger.)
