Specifying 0 in this field indicates that socket addresses of any       type can be returned by getaddrinfo().              I do not think it has something to do with BinkD.       It is just an error that your OS (Linux?) reports back to BinkD.       The question is why ... to be honest I have no clue.       Easiest would be to hardcode an IPv4 address ... that should work by       eliminating the DNS query.              If you want to get to the bottom of this you could use ltrace to trace what       calls are done, and take a look what is in the call that fails.              It could also be an IPv4/IPv6 issue maybe??              Keep us informed ...              CU, Ricsi              ... Channel your imagination into ever-soaring levels of paranoia.       --- GoldED+/LNX        * Origin: My wife's other car is a broom!
