Hello all,
=20
I was wondering if it is possible to use IPv6 as the default protocol =
for a lan. For the moment i have a linux server, which is connected to =
the internet with a cable modem, and connected to a hub with another =
nic. There also are some other clients connected to the hub (FreeBSD, =
Win95, Win98 and 2 WinNT4 clients).
=20
What I want to do is to use IPv6 for the lan (like =
telnet/imap/smb/smb-pdc/etc... ), and connect the lan to the internet =
with the linux server.
So, the first problem i see is how i setup the clients/server so they =
use IPv6 for all services (if this is possible ....)
The second problem is to configure the linux server so it uses the =
normal connection for IPv4 and the tunnel when using IPv6.=20
Thanks in advance,
Kim
