Trying IPv6 first is what is more or less the default in almost all       cases. Winpoint does not yet support fall back to IPv4 but that will be a       matter of time.                     Cheers, Michiel              --- GoldED+/W32-MSVC 1.1.5-b20170303        * Origin: he.net certified sage (2:280/5555)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 15/0 90/1 105/81 106/201 987 120/340 123/131 124/5014       SEEN-BY: 124/5016 129/331 130/330 153/7715 218/700 226/30 229/110       SEEN-BY: 229/206 317 400 424 426 428 550 664 700 240/5832 266/512       SEEN-BY: 280/464 282/1038 301/1 317/3 320/219 322/757 342/200 387/25       SEEN-BY: 387/26 28 396/45 633/280       PATH: 280/5555 464 396/45 229/426           |
