Fair enough. I'm stumped then: I don't understand how libc is even setting up a connection with an IPv6 source address when there is no IPv6 source address to use for that. Out of interest, do you have any way to see what soruce address it is choosing when you do wget? Thanks, Andy -- https://bitfolk.com/ -- No-nonsense VPS hosting
