The thing that terrifies me about deploying IPv6 is that apps compatible with both are programmed to attempt IPv6 before IPv4. [...] is going to break again. And again. And again.
This is dual stack, my recommendation is disable IPv6 on your servers (so your clients will still talk to them on IPv4 only), and let your client goes IPv6 first. Once you understand what is happening, get on IPv6 on your servers.
That advice reminds me of a limerick I once heard: A host is a host
From coast to coast And nobody talks to a host that's close Unless the host that isn't close Is busy, hung or dead.
Thanks, but it doesn't really speak to the problem I fear. Regards, Bill Herrin -- William D. Herrin ................ herrin@dirtside.com bill@herrin.us 3005 Crane Dr. ...................... Web: <http://bill.herrin.us/> Falls Church, VA 22042-3004
