Hey list,

There was one more issue that I was not able to address: With the patch 
applied, broadcast-dns-service-discovery does not error out, but the 
results it returns are very strange:
Pre-scan script results:
| broadcast-dns-service-discovery:
|   ::a00:8cee:0:0
|     9/tcp workstation
|       Address=192.168.1.14 2002:62be:b3c6:0:211:2fff:fed7:d902

I can't explain those ::a00:XXXX:0:0 addresses. They change every time 
the script is invoked, but the results are always grouped according to 
port/service, rather than IP, as they should be.
Hi dan,

After a quick look it seems that this is a bug in NSE get_info()
function. A patch is attached it should handle IPv6 addresses.
