I'd disagree. Something is broken, and IPv6 probably isn't it. If disabling IPv6 fixes it, then you're merely working around the symptoms and not fixing the problem. You can explicitly connect using IPv4 by using '127.0.0.1' instead of 'localhost'. That should indicate if there is a problem with connecting via IPv6 or not. -Chris. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
