OK, yes it certainly does look like all is working
as designed. I'd been thrown since it was
all working for me until recently. In fact, it never should have
worked.
Well, since IPv6 works for me as I would want I think I'll just go
with that as the method
described in the link is as it says "a hack" and only provides
access to a single VM and
a single port. I use a much larger number of VMs and ports.
Thanks for the link and thanks much for your time.
