If you're going to access an IPv6-only resource, through an IPv4-only network (you, your ISP) you need some handler *outside* of your own network. Seriously, there is no way for me to directly access anything that's IPv6. While I might be able to resolve the name, there's no way to connect to the IP. The only way for me to do it, whatever method you profer, is to find out an equivalent IPv4 address to connect to. If you can only do IPv4, what's the point of having anything to do with IPv6? For resources available on both IPv4 and 6, if you're just going to translate to IPv4, why not do just do IPv4 in the first place? I don't write to this list in English, translate it to Spanish, then translate it back to English again. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
