Fortunately we managed to undo that, but it took       almost a week.              To make an IPv6 connect to my Dual Stack system we deployed a work-around.       Fidonet sysops are good at work-arounds. Instead of the nodelisted hostname       fido.vlist.eu, I have the alternative of fido6.vlist.eu. That host name only       resolves to an IPv6 address. That is the one that is now in Rinaldo's WinPoint       config. And so he now makes IPv6 connections with me.                     Cheers, Michiel              --- GoldED+/W32-MSVC 1.1.5-b20170303        * Origin: http://www.vlist.eu (2:280/5555)       SEEN-BY: 15/0 106/201 124/5016 129/331 153/757 7715 203/0 218/700       SEEN-BY: 221/0 229/110 317 426 428 664 700 266/512 280/464 5003 5555       SEEN-BY: 282/1038 292/854 8125 301/1 310/31 317/3 320/219 341/234       SEEN-BY: 396/45 460/58 712/848 2452/250       PATH: 280/5555 464 292/854 229/426           |
