machine2 is a very recent install directly from jessie.

machine1 is also jessie, but dist-upgrade.

netstat -a shows tcp6 on both machines.

listen=NO means to run it standalone instead of from inetd.  I don't believe it 
has anything to do with ipv6/ipv4.

well i have configured BOTH machines thusly :

listen=YES
#listen_ipv6=YES

and then it works on BOTH machines.  This most certainly points to some issue 
with IPV6.

There is a problem here, one I should most likely fix, but i can't figure out 
what it is.
