      Hello Paul!              20 Dec 17 20:18, you wrote to me:               KE>> Beside, for binkd/1.1a-47/Linux binkp/1.1 all precompiled versions        KE>> for sensible OS's have IPv6 compiled in.

Moreover, because there are also        versions for OS's that do not support ipv6.               This is all I could find.               Add IPv6 support - default if building system supports RFC2553        API, except under Win32 where it needs to be enabled explicitly        (set IPV6=1 during make). Under Win32 at least WinXP SP2 is        required. Outbound IPv4 or IPv6 usage can be limited by using        -4 or -6 node parameters respectively.               But why would you want to remove the ipv6 support on a linux system.        There are other ways to disable IPv6 in Linux alltogether.               I would have to look for those. I do use IPV6, so disabling it is unknown        territory for me.              Kees              --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5        * Origin: As for me, all I know is that, I know nothing.
