Hi,
If the last period of ipv6 address is a number, this period will be cut and curl will resovle a wrong ipv6 address. For example:
[zwzhang@JSI-iDPL02 ~]$ curl -6 ftp://2001:da8:203:eb4:201:6cff:fe51:7313/upload/zwtest/data.0 -o ./data.0 -u user:passwd
curl: (6) Couldn't resolve host '2001:da8:203:eb4:201:6cff:fe51'
So is the http protocol. Adding the port after the address will work, but this problem is really confusing.
[zwzhang@JSI-iDPL02 ~]$ curl -6 ftp://2001:da8:203:eb4:201:6cff:fe51:7313:21/upload/zwtest/data.0 -o ./data.0 -u user:passwd
  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed
100  100M  100  100M    0     0  5362k      0  0:00:19  0:00:19 --:--:-- 8317k
Thanks,
