   What else might be needed for that?  Because on a Debian 8 install of 
v1.04, a poll attempt to your system went via IPv4.  (I'll check the settings 
I was using, and follow up as necessary in the MBSE echo...)

   I'll be updating the install to the new version (v1.06) at 1:120/545 when I 
have a chance so I can test that.

  I'll be testing that when I have a chance.
