Hm, it appears to be even worse than I thought...

I was switching from a config file which contained the hostname of a server 
which only had an IPv4 address, to a hostname which only resolves to an IPv6 
address.

Since kannel doesn't do IPv6 yet, that didn't work.

However today I seem to have found that if you give kannel a hostname which 
resolves to both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, it still can't connect to the IPv4 
address!

Just the existence of an IPv6 address in the hostname lookup is enough to 
prevent kannel from being able to connect to the IPv4 address alongside it.


Can anyone else confirm this finding, or is it just me and my networking setup 
(which works fine for other services connecting to both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses 
for the same hostname)?


Thanks,


Antony.
