Hello Conny!

On 30 Jan 2022, Conny Enström said the following...
 
 CE> I try to set up binkd and when I specify the port to the host node I get

 CE> 
 CE> getaddrinfo failed: Servname not supported for ai_socktype (-8)

Could this possible be the same as:
https://github.com/pgul/binkd/issues/27

I'm using binkd 1.1a-111 on Debian now, and in that version things work as expected (whereas earlier versions did not).

I'm not sure exactly which version of binkd that fixed this, though.

Best regards
Bj”rn
