   Hallo Michiel,   
      
   AN>> Correct.   
   AN>> But as long as IPv6 is not the default case for accessing the   
   AN>> Internet, I still want to have a 'real' IPv4 address to be able to   
   AN>> access my home devices from the Internet.   
      
   MvdV> I do not know if that is a realistic wish.   
      
   MvdV> The transition to IPv6 should have been completed 10 years ago, /before/   
   MvdV> the world ran out of IPv4 adresses.   
      
   You're absolutely right!   
      
   AN>> And in my case, I don't have IPv6 at work, for example.   
      
   MvdV> So tell your boss that he needs to prepair for the case that when you   
   MvdV> are forced to work from home and can only be reached via IPv6.   
      
   :) I'm working for the local public library, a part of the     
   municipality. And as I'm living in Germany, I'm happy that I do have a     
   working computer and not only a typewriter and a fax machine.   
   Our library building still has some IBM Type-1 cabling (from Token     
   Ring-days) that we're using for Ethernet via some adapters...   
   I don't think that IPv6 days will come soon here...   
      
   MvdV> I mentioned feste-ip.net didn't I?   
      
   I didn't know that page, thanks for that info :)   
   But I'm happy that my setup is working at the moment as I've set it up     
   :)   
      
   AN>> But all my (own, private) servers do have IPv6 enabled and reachable   
   AN>> for years now (and I also have the IPv6 T-Shirt from he.net *g*), so   
   AN>> at least I'm prepared :)   
      
   MvdV> The T-shirt...  I already showed you mine didn't I? How about showing   
   MvdV> yours? ;-)   
      
   Hehe, nice try :) I guess it's looking basically the same :)
