[AusNOG] SMH: "No room at the internet"

[Sean K. Finn]

On a different tack, PLESK has confirmed that they have scheduled IPv6 support in next release due November to January.

I suspect CPANEL will come out at about the same time with similar enhancements.

John,

I know a number of people who would be interested in the changes you've made to cPanel, myself included. We've got thousands of websites stranded on v4 because of this abomination.

Regards,
Curtis

We have IPv6 on all flavours of our DSL and ethernet on request , but most users remain somewhere between blissfully ignorant and arrogantly in denial. There's a certain commodity modem/router out there that dies when it receives ipv6 discovery packets on its PPP interface (probably due to ipv6 being stripped out of its linux-based kernel to save space), which may be a showstopper for some. Vendor maintains that it works great in bridged mode with Internode ipv6.

If anyone is interested, we also have some scripts to apply IPv6 to Cpanel, so that it plays nicely with Cpanel's config-rewriting routines and software updates. At the moment this works for web and exim email.

mail.ausnog.net sends this list via IPv6 [2407:9000:0:3:250:56ff:fe9e:409b] if you have it :)
