>> Actually, my toaster and oven have an IP address... I can remember IP (v4) addys better than I can remember my own mobile number (even though I've had the same phone number for 10 years - I think the dots in the IP help :p) I can't see me remembering IPv6 addys any time soon though, even for the toaster... Does Windows support IPv6? As a regular Billy No-clue Windows user I've not seen any trace of it in XP. Maybe that's why it's not caught on yet? And if that's the case then I can't see Microsoft going out of their way to introduce it to the mainstream if it means that you could connect to the interwebs using your non-MS toaster instead of buying a copy of Windows. (Though I assume Vista supports it even if XP doesn't - Microsoft must surely have included it as a 'just in case' feature) All that said, I usually block the IPv6 module in Linux if it's enabled because it's so bloody slow and uneeded at the moment. Plus I don't understand it either ;) -- [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
