INN 2.3.2 is able to speak ipv6 with a patch provided at

ftp://ftp.north.ad.jp/pub/IPv6/INN/inn-2.3.2-v6-20010807.diff.gz

This combination is running without any problems on
thor.ipv6.birkenwald.de:119 and news.ipv6.eurocyber.net:1119 (reader
access and innfeed over ipv6 are possible).

I did not test it under heavy load though, both systems have about
50megs/day newsfeed, my machine also has some reader access. 

   bye bye
