[Dxspider-support] IPv6 support?

Hi Howard,
I have a Spider node running here on IPV6
ZL2AQY-10
It can be accessed on ipv6 on 2001:470:d:660::5 7300
If you want to try Peering with me on IPV6 let me know your Node call and I
will enter it as a node on my Cluster.

 Interesting, and I did as you said below, and sure enough it seems to be
listening over IPv6 now, so thanks for the input.

 I guess that now leaves the question as to why I fixed address couldn't be
used, granted not a major problem, but it should work.  As to the typo, I
don't see anything wrong, heck if I ping my manual IP I have assigned on the
server it works fine:

ping6 2001:550:102:1::11

--- 2001:550:102:1::11 ping6 statistics ---
2 packets transmitted, 2 packets received, 0.0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/std-dev = 0.067/0.107/0.148/0.040 ms


 So unless I am missing something, that syntax should be correct, and seems
to work for everything else related to that IP address.

That said, I guess now I need to be able to give the code a real test, so
are
you, or is anyone here able to give me a peering link to a node that is
running over IPv6?   As I would love to see if I can get this up and
completely talking over IPv6, granted I will allow clients to also connect
over IPv4 if desired..
