But when you disable the 6to4 service you disable a lot of other services as it was wrongly named. It is actually the 6to4 *helper* service taking care of a number of things amongst others the portproxy helper. If one wants to disable 6to4 and teredo, then use: netsh int ipv6 6to4 set state disabled disabled netsh int ipv6 set teredo disable > This may be useful if there is a global IPv6 configured. > Otherwise OS returns the whole bunch of IPv6 addresses and in > some cases, when needed, the code should take care of which > one to choose.

There is work for a new IPv6 Java API which will support all the special nifty IPv6 features too. > Programming aplications, which are both v6 and v4 aware is > quite a pain but may be achieved as well. Use getaddrinfo() and relieve yourself of 'the pain' See the following great document by Eva Castro: http://jungla.dit.upm.es/~ecastro/IPv6-web/ipv6.html Or Itojun's article from way back in 1998: http://www.kame.net/newsletter/19980604/ > Win2000 can use IPv6 as well.

It is *very* different from the version in XP, it doesn't do a lot of things which did get fixed in the XP version. > However, requires separate download and some > SP number. If remember correctly should be at least 2. See the FAQ on the MS site or simply download the prepped version from eg http://hs247.com which has the fixed hotfix.ini with updated version numbering.

They have that 'tax' also in the Netherlands, but still, even though you are 'paying' money for 'copyrighted' material to some vague organisation one is not allowed to copy copyrighted material onto it. I still also wonder why one can buy a pallet of burnable cd's at the supermarket or every computer corner around the shop and nobody really cares about that ;) Or even cooler: Copy your cd's from Polygram (read: Philips) onto cd recordable's which are manufactured by Philips using your double-decked Philips CD-Copy-Home-Station ;) They really are doing it themselves. > Does anyone know when/if Microsoft is bring out a consumer > operating system > with IpV6 in it? That would be useful for market acceptance...??? XP SP1 and 2003 support it from the default install and are supported. NT4/2000 have stacks available from MS Research which work but have quirks and are not supported... Greets, Jeroen -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: Unfix PGP for Outlook Alpha 13 Int.
