Chris - This has long been an issue with the Windows version of APR. If you leave off the "address=" parameter of the connector, it will default to IPv6 only. The workaround I've been using for years is the "address=0.0.0.0" feature, since I'm an IPv4 only setup. Theoretically, it should set up both connections, but doesn't. I'm not sure if anyone's ever found a reason for this behavior, but it does only seem to affect APR connections. You can search back in history a year or so for more detailed analysis if you'd like. (search for my posts on the subject.) Jeff
