Address familily not supported (Woody)

[WaldeG@t-online.de (Waldemar Gorus)]

Hello,

yesterday evening I tried some configurations with ssh and
X11-Forwarding (also some changes at apache, but all modules are
from the stable distribution).

However, I just noticed that every try to connect with bitchx to a
irc-server, fails now with the message:

Unable to connect to port 6667 of server irc.debian.org: Address family
not supported by protocol

All common protocols I have in use (like smtp,pop,http,ssh) are working
properly....

no idea, how to solve this problem..

ciao
Walde
