- gorkish, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1For anyone curious as to what the difference in the IPv6 version is... get this:

Well, the IPv6 version is exactly the same as the IPv4 one.
The difference is in the visitors...
Je bent een Stoere Bikkel, aka You Rock.
Except when your name is mendel.
Sorry dude, life's a bitch.
So it is exactly the same ... except for the intro text. Sorry guys, no nice color and sound to wow you... Sorry :(
For the geeks: Just FYI you don't need a tunnel broker to use IPv6. If you have a public IPv4 address anyway you can just use 6to4 encapsulation. This has the benefit of running at full speed. You also get a nice huge block of IPv6 addresses under your 6to4 address. You can then configure the machine with the public IP as an IPv6 router and give all your internal machines routable IPv6 addresses.
