      Hello Alex,              On Sunday January 21 2018 22:46, you wrote to me:               AS> Well, remembering my XP days, IPv6 stuff was in alpha/beta state        AS> there. And network stack was pretty buggy. Got "No buffer space        AS> available" after couple of days uptime and forced to reboot too.              Yes, the IPv6 implementation of XP is incomplete (no DHCP6) and it is a bit       buggy. It works good enough to run a Fdionet IOv6 node though.               AS> Win7 will definitely work better with this.              Perhaps it is time to say goodbye to XP?               MvdV>> From the log it seems some IPv6 is coming in, but it would be        MvdV>> nice of someone would see if they can reach www.vlist.eu via        MvdV>> IPv6               AS> It works.              Thanks, The odd thing is that I can connect to my web server locally via IPv6,       but the connection via IPv4 seems to be the prefered one. To connect via IPv6       I must force an IP6 connection by using a host name without an IPv4 address.       Maybe the relay introduces a delay that makes IPv4 preferent on the otherwise       fast local connection?               AS> I see you have native IPv6, too:              Yes, since mid 2016.               AS> ipv6.dynamic.ziggo.nl [2001:1c02:1100:d700:f1d0:2:280:5555]               AS> but your ISP does not seem to assign proper reverse DNS for customers.              Indeed, that is a bit of a joke. Every IPv6 addres (2001:1c02::/32) of my       provider backresolves to ipv6.dynamic.ziggo.nl.                     Cheers, Michiel              --- GoldED+/W32-MSVC 1.1.5-b20170303        * Origin: he.net certified sage (2:280/5555)    |
