Correct the backend has no IPv4 connectivity.

[root at mirror ~]# ip a sh eth0
2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast
state UP qlen 1000
    link/ether 52:54:00:77:b4:10 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    inet6 2a02:168:7a0e:6:5054:ff:fe77:b410/64 scope global
noprefixroute dynamic
       valid_lft 86347sec preferred_lft 14347sec
    inet6 fe80::5054:ff:fe77:b410/64 scope link
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

The fronted IPs are served via a DNS CNAME and might be changed due to
infrastructure flexibility.

PS.: If you can provide a username/password rsync access, I can move
the backend into a mixed IPv4/IPv6 network. (NAT private IPv4 RC1918 /
IPv6)
The IPv6 address would change then.

Do you have any other idea? Maybe it is not mandatory (until IPv6 is
available) to have a direct connection to our msync network?
May I host the first msync IPv6 for Europe?

It should really be changed _asap_. IPv6 was codified 1st of December
1995 in RFC1883. This is over _20_ years ago.
