FH news FreddysHouse forums available over IPv6

[Deebs]

FreddysHouse forums are now available over IPv6. All the backend servers (image, javascript etc) are also running native IPv6.

Any problems please respond in this thread.

Over the next few days I shall work on converting the guides and wiki to ipV6.

Firefox users, ShowIP plugin is great, it shows you if you connect to a site using IPv4 or IPv6.

It's cool to bash IPv6, but you'll probably be complaining when you're stuck behind a NAT or can't access another site because they simply ran out of addresses.

Ah I didn't click the link, thought it might be dodgy. Clicked it and I have to say, the guy is a cock. Simples.

Some of the stuff he writes about is just wrong. Anyway, IPv6 will be a lot more mainstream from this year on.

And as GReaper mentioned, you don't want to be stuck behind NAT at home, then NAT within the ISP as they run out of addresses to allocate, imagine that, sharing a NATted IP with a complete stranger within the same ISP. Good luck on getting any port forwarding to work

Anything that says NAT is good can fuck right off. NAT was invented to get around IPv4, NAT is not a replacement for a network condom, it needs to die.
