Well, the Linux client only has IPv4 enabled but the SUN box does have an 
IPV6 interface (although it is not in use):

[export/home/raistlin/SVN/icculus/quake3-Solaris/trunk ]ifconfig -a
lo0: flags=2001000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,VIRTUAL> mtu 8232 index 1
         inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
bge0: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2
         inet 192.168.128.8 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.128.255
lo0: flags=2002000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6,VIRTUAL> mtu 8252 index 1
         inet6 ::1/128
bge0: flags=2004841<UP,RUNNING,MULTICAST,DHCP,IPv6> mtu 1500 index 2
         inet6 fe80::214:4fff:fe0e:87ae/10

Maybe the server is binding to the IPV6 interface.. strange..

They cannot scare me with their empty spaces
Between stars - on stars where no human race is
I have it in me so much nearer home
To scare myself with my own desert places.       - Robert Frost
