ipv6 servers are:
irc.ipv6.homelien.no
irc.aloha.net
irc.efnet.nl
efnet.ipv6.xs4all.nl
(most of which are down or unstable)
As far as I know anyway... Personally I think ipv6 is a waste of time, though I did use it when an ipv6 server was first linked to efnet to check out the protocol... oh and to show of my "elite" domain hm2k.org...
But if we were going to make something of it then maybe he.net should link up an ipv6 server since they are ipv6 'tunnelers'... I thought that would make sense.
So far I have seen abuse from ipv6 addresses in the form of, I can't find an ipv4 frontend to find out who a person really is, also I got attacked by an ipv6 mirkforce net, which was majorly gay...
Personally I think ipv6 is a waste of time, money, effort, etc (the list goes on) but I am almost sure that this was discussed previously on the old efnet forum.
BTW, what if you don't use IPv6? I see no option...
Why do YOU use ipv6?

You can, unfortunatly, also ddos an IPv6 host. But there's not enough windows-idiots running IPv6 yet, so there's not many big ddos-nets of infected computers. So your everyday scriptkiddie wont have a way to do this. But, I'm sure there's some ipv6-ddosnets out there somewhere.bobjuh wrote:Can't you realy ddos a ipv6 host ?
Dunno what acid you've eaten to make you believe that irc.ipv6.homelien.no is frequently down. I've been using that server since a week before it linked to efnet :) and I've never had any problems except once in a while when their IPv4 server gets hit since it's linked to EFnet via that.sierran wrote:what do you mean "a few ipv6 servers"? to the best of my knowledge irc.ipv6.homelien.no is the only working ipv6 server on efnet. and its frequently down.
is there some secret list of ipv6 servers that is being hidden from the public? i demand access to that list!!
Tell that to Asia :) IPv6 is, unfortunatly, something that we have to move to sooner or later. But that's a totally different subject.HM2K wrote: Personally I think ipv6 is a waste of time, money, effort, etc (the list goes on) but I am almost sure that this was discussed previously on the old efnet forum.
Myself I use it to hide my ipv4 ip, not for vanity. (I have enough IPv4 adresses if i was interested in lo-ng.cool.h0stnam.es
most core network equipment is moving to support ipv6, but it's a slow rollout because there's a lot of equipment to upgrade. upgrades are mainly starting at the larger networks (ie - AT&T, UUNet, etc) before it trickles down to the smaller networks. This is why a lot of ipv6 has to be tunneled through ipv4, because what you want to reach may not have an IPv6 address, or even a route to follow if it had one.
many larger websites will resolve to both ipv6 and ipv4 addresses, and connections will first be attempted via ipv6 (and fail with no route to host if you have no v6 IP on your system), then try ipv4.
it will be a few years yet before the average dialup user gets an ipv6 address, but it will come eventually.
