Hello Ray,

Yes, I got it:

As you can see the IPv6 address is the same as that was in your host name in the nodelist bbs.quinnet.org. Well it was there yesterday, today there is no AAAA record attachjed to it.

Anyway, 2602:306:bd31:aa50:e23f:49ff:fead:fa9 is the ip address of your binkp system.

But it does not yet answer on that address

Most likely you have a firewall issue. You have to configure your firewall(s) to pass port 24554 IPv6. Both in your router as in the system running your binkp system.
