Hi all!

I've been struggling with some problems lately after going from FreeBSD 
4.11-STABLE to FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE.
Eggdrop will not listen to tcp4, at any cost. It will only listen to 
IPv6 (tcp6), no matter what i do. The same error occurs
with "muh", but works fine on "psybnc".

Here's an output from sockstat:
# sockstat|grep eggdrop
melsom   eggdrop-1. 79529 3  tcp6   *:9699                *:*
melsom   eggdrop-1. 79529 4  udp4   *:59442               *:*
melsom   eggdrop-1. 79529 6  tcp6   
2001:1448:80:276:c0::290:613082001:888:0:2::2:6667

As you can see, it only listens to tcp6, and a random udp port (?!). The 
port i've sat in the config is 9699. I've checked
the my-ip6 and my-ip settings.Does anyone know why it listens to the udp 
port? It's random every time i start the Eggdrop.
I've no idea what it could be. I have recompiled the eggdrop, tcl and 
everything, still no results. Is this a common bug?

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Regards,
Andreas Melsom
