        That a dual stack system that's more than roughly a week or so old? Could be getting hit by the IPv6 route-to bug, though I'd expect curl to pick v6 by default to Google as well in that case and fail.

          @cmb:

          It's a single stack system.  I'm just testing functionality and I had a hunch that the v6 related stuff would probably get less coverage.  I have v6 available at the ISP level on four FTTC connections with a pfSense 2.2.5 but haven't enabled it internally yet.  This box's WAN is on an internal LAN at the moment.

          When 2.3 gets beta status then I'll run it up in a VM at home which has v6 as preferred and keep my 2.2.5 ready just in case (Wife Acceptance Factor).  I may even grow a pair in the meantime and get v6 available in the office, once I understand the full implications.

          Also, thanks to you guys I now have a FreeBSD VM running on my laptop that I poke at a bit but I speak BSD with a dreadful Linux accent.

          Anyway, I've just run "pkg install git" and it now works.  I'm learning …
