   Hello Kees,   
      
   On Saturday December 08 2018 18:23, you wrote to me:

   I was not harping on D'Bridge, I was trying to pinpoint the source of the   
   problem by elimination. The inner workings of D'Bridge have always been   
   treaetd as if they are state secrets. So I had to work on a minimum of   
   knowledge.

   OK...   
      
    MvdV>> The latest binkd release that I use is   
    MvdV>> binkd11a99-mingw32-ipv6-perldl-zlib-bzlib2.zip

    KE>  The last few versions were just addition of useless options.   
      
   When encountering problems, it is always a good strategy to try the latest   
   version. Whether one needs it or not. The latest version is the only one that   
   is maintained.   
      
    KE>  Almost nay available version shoild wordk with ipv6 as long as it is   
    KE>  compiled in.   
      
   The way it looks now, is that the version of binkd that Ward used was the   
   exception. Despite the fact that it showed the IPv6 compile option was used,   
   it would not do IPv6. So replacing it was NOT useless in tracing the problem.   
      
      
   Cheers, Michiel
