A growing number of platforms implement IPv6, allowing Apache to allocate IPv6 sockets and handle requests which were sent over IPv6. This article explains how to setup dual stacked, IPv4 and IPv6 enabled Apache networking under any Linux or UNIX like operating systems. You need to update httpd.conf file with the Listen directive.

Access subsidiary IP Infusion announced a new Linux-ready "stateless tunneling" product that enables the coexistence of IPv4 and IPv6 networks. Based on the IETF's "6rd" (IPv6 rapid deployment) specifications, ZebOS Rapid Deployment forwards IPv6 traffic though existing IPv4 networks, enabling carriers to more easily transition to IPv6, says IP Infusion.

The most important and most visible improvement brought by the new protocol is the enormous expansion of the available address space. An IPv6 address is made up of 128 bit values instead of the traditional 32 bits. This provides for as many as several quadrillion IP addresses.

IPv6 is the future of IP, and it’s a good time to start learning about it. It’s very easy to put an IPv6 address on Linux. IPv6 addresses have 126 bits. This allows for an enormous address space.

Will IPv4 exhaustion reduce the original Internet to the "traditional mass-media" model, strictly separating the participants into “publishers” of content, and mere "consumers" of it? How do we ensure that all users of the Internet will always be free to directly communicate and cooperate with each other?

"Just before year's end, ICANN/IANA sent out a short message saying that 'on 4 February 2008, IANA will add AAAA records for the IPv6 addresses of the four root servers whose operators have requested it.' [...] That means that as of February 4, 2008, it will (theoretically) be possible for two IPv6 hosts to communicate across the IPv6 Internet without having to rely on any IPv4 infrastructure. It's been a long journey to get to this point..."

NFS-GANESHA is an NFS version 2-4 server that runs in the user address space instead of as part of the operating system kernel. Filesystem in Userspace (FUSE) lets you run a filesystem in the user address space instead of as part of the Linux kernel, but the FUSE support in the Linux kernel from many Linux distributions does not allow you to export FUSE through NFS.

Fixing a Problem with Nmap Ever had an ipv4 network address that is supposed to migrate over via a high availability mechanism simply not work or even stranger if there were several addresses some do and some do not?
