Problem trying to setup using ipv6

I'm probably doing something obviously wrong, but anyway.

Whenever I try and make an ipv6 server, it comes up with this error when I try to start unreal:

[Sat Nov 11 19:33:17 2006] - Error binding stream socket to IP ::ffff:66.252.10.237 port 7029 - ****[]:Can't assign requested address
[Sat Nov 11 19:33:17 2006] - You are trying to bind to an IPv4 address, make sure the address exists at your machine. If you are using *BSD you might need to enable ipv6_ipv4mapping in /etc/rc.conf and/or via sysctl.

My link block looks like this:

Code: Select all

link            ****
{
	username	*;
	hostname 	[::ffff:66.252.10.237];
	bind-ip 	[::ffff:66.252.10.131];
	port 		7029;
	hub             *;
	password-connect "*****";
	password-receive "*****";
	class           servers;
		options {
			/* Note: You should not use autoconnect when linking services */
			autoconnect;
			ssl;
			zip;
		};
};
Thanks,

I may be wrong but as far as i am aware if youre using IPv4 addresses in your config on a server with bothe IPv4 and IPv6 you should still be able to specify the IPv4 addresses as usual instead of in the IPv6 to IPv4 format.
