Hi,

Well, on Linux 2.2 IPv6/IPng it is already supported. I don't remember
exactly starting with what version of Linux they have already support
IPv6 but for instance BSDI also is supporting.
So I think we must support quite soon IPv6/IPng for a lot of
Client-Server application which will gonna be build for IPv6.

Some hints in this way ?
Stef
