This is normal; its trying to bind to the ipv6 address and you probably don't have one defined or have ipv6 disabled. It can be safely ignored. I think on later -STABLE its been disabled. Unless you _want_ to bind to the v6 address :) -- Doug White | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve dwhite@gumbysoft.com | www.FreeBSD.org
