On Linux kernels IPv6 support is often built as a loadable kernel module "ipv6" - if you don't have this kernel module loaded at run-time, socket(AF_INET6, ...) will return an error. (I didn't find another platform which could "support" but not "enable" IPv6 in this way last time I looked at this) joe
