Listen on two ports?

[Paul Hayton]

Can I set BinkD to listen on two ports at the same time?
Ideally traffic that is sent to an IPv6 address.

Sure, just like:

listen :24554
listen :24555

or:

listen f10.n221.z2.rbb.fidonet.fi:24554

Be aware that if you specify a listen command, the default of listening to all
adresses on both IPv4 and IPv6 will be disabled. So if you specify:

listen ipv6address.example:24554
listen ipv6address.example:24555

You have to explicitly add a listen command for IPv4 unless it is an IPv6 only
node:

listen 0.0.0.0:24555

Maybe the simplest way in your case (3:770/100) is:

listen agency6.bbs.nz:24554
listen [::]:24555
listen 0.0.0.0:24555
