tag 645166 + moreinfo thanks Hi,
thanks for you bug report. Unfortunately I can't reproduce the issue, so I'm dependent on more information about your setup to solve the issue.

For example 192.168.2.104:808 or http://192.168.2.104:8080 > produces the following error message: > "Error loading 192.1698.2.104:8080/: > Cannot assign address" Is this error message copied or typed? If copied, the error lies probably in the invalid IP address "192.1698.2.104". If typed, it's very likely just a typo. On the other hand, if I try this, I just get "Error loading http://192.1698.2.104:8080/: Host not found". And the error message "Cannot assign address" also looks more like if something tries to set an IP address instead of just connecting to it, probably something closer to the kernel than links2 itself. Do you have IPv6 connectivity on that machine? Maybe it's something the IPv6 patch brought in. OTOH I can't reproduce this issue, probably because something's different in your setup which I don't know about.... > A previous version of Links (2.3pre1) does this successfully and > reliably, as do a range of other browsers. Did you try to e.g. downgrade the package, test it, upgrade it again and test it again? Or did you just notice it somewhen after the upgrade?
