V7 Alpha shell not working

[MikeKrebs]

Running the alpha V7, I can't get shell to run

Unable to connect

Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at fpp01.local:4200.

Do I need to do something to enable SSH Shell?

try it without the .local  (though, for me, it worked either way)
 
using the :4200, it goes to a login screen for the shell CLI (rarely used by me since I'm not a Linux user)

Using the IP worked.

Interestingly, doing a ping returns an IPV6 address
ping fpp01.local

I don't use IPV6 so I went into my network adapter properties and unchecked IPV6. Then the two things I had problems with (shell and troubleshooting) started working immediately using the IP address.
