Well, I know this is probably a silly worry, but I run behind an IPv4 NAT, which makes me feel fairly safe. I know that IPv6 is a much larger address space so, iiuc, it would be harder for a "cracker" to find IPv6, but I'd probably want to continue to run behind NAT, so the idea that I wouldn't even know if my ISP switched to IPv6 does not make me comfortable. But, no need for any replies -- I'll try to stay with IPv4 as long as I can. -- rhk If you reply: snip, snip, and snip again; leave attributions; avoid HTML; avoid top posting; and keep it "on list".
