   It is not magic, it is a script. ;-)   
      
   My fellow sysop, Kees van Eeten has a script dat periodically checks the   
   nodelist for nodes that advertise an IPv6 address in the host name. If he   
   finds new ones, he reports them to me. I attempt to make an IPv6 connect. If   
   it succeeds, I add the node to the list. If it fails, I try to contact the   
   sysop to help solve the problem. Sometimes these attempts are successful,   
   sometimes they are not.

   You have to manually configure it as a fixed address. I see you run Linux, so   
   I can't help you there. I am not famliar with Linux.   
      
   Cheers, Michiel
