Quite old, for sure.  My bad.  I'm just flogging a dev environment I took great
pains to build years back.  I have a couple of USB boot sticks with later
Puppies, which is its usual user environment, but I wouldn't trust any of those
to run Fido.

 PQ>> last compiled binary did _not_ mention IPv6 capability.

 NB> Did you try compiling the latest binkd sources without IPv6 support?

Honestly, I didn't even think of it.  Thanks.  I will try that after I have my
daredevil suit re-pressed.  ;)

Yes, the former is preferred.  But, I promise to check for later Puppy options
as well... more often.

Thank you kindly, Nick.

Cheers,
Paul.
