Package: X2Go Windows Client
Version: 4.1.2.2

I have a hostname that has both 1x IPv4 address (A records) and 1x IPv6 
address (AAAA records). The client fails to connect (connection timeout 
error exact message: "Timeout connecting to $HOSTNAME") if I use the 
hostname. However if I enter the IPv4 or the IPv6 instead of the 
hostname: it works!

Proposed solution: it should try to connect/resolve to the IPv6 first, 
then the IPv4.

Regards,
Chris.
