I guess you're all missing the point here. I've never agreed too much with M$, but what they're doing is right. IPv6 stacks are quite mature these days but IPv6 connectivity can be broken due to incorrectly implemented networks / tunnels (see: http://ripe61.ripe.net/presentations/223-World_IPv6_day.pdf). For those clients there is no option other than disabling IPv6. Hopefully the service providers & network admins get to identify and fix issues. This problem is not client OS specific. I'm all for M$ bashing, but not for this reason. -Jaidev > > Owen > > On Jun 2, 2011, at 3:26 PM, Bill Woodcock wrote: > >> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- >> Hash: SHA256 >> >> >> http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2533454/ >> >> Uh... >> >> -Bill >> >> >> >> >> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- >> Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (Darwin) >> >> iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJN6A4VAAoJEG+kcEsoi3+H7uoQAMrSuAXqXo+L+Wkiqx+OvwU8 >> v4TJEeTU8Hp+ap0Kuka0Jq2HFC2ReABwfwZEX9wywdcXKFYu1u8znVa6neX6rjcv >> uxghsoqZEp9A4KB/J2q/ulM6B8/40oRHK1IuHdv0fZwC0oLyJ1W10n1VzsiE3qxx >> JOWbn1SIPo4nXnTIVU60yDOySlsclpW3fuqQoUIHzwEZEFgYf2l7ywcPfuCvVQJw >> FuqASIk0c9hQJVnBKTpaIQaNdRExkYtQSs5i8+TyzxhyGx1XGDOeJoRHRBQhSfcS >> DS8Vuwvblh+UjGFDIEF9Oen7NxrK2xjBCJIDV+MbJwAJdjs5wM3H9nFdhCX9Z2cl >> TRIj4/qQcS7m8cl4gNFY3nplALrWHjs2WK8jk0HlDnEgvSe7D2YC6Te5vnGgY9sX >> JXif1D36Pzx1V1JwbmMIwvvlUalPH/jyciMVUGrMMKc+0w7/75IerzGsSabdTIzJ >> t0/4jh5/h8db+q37CfN1Xj/gWkBcIyXmGGCd3pny4+YJwI5hnspWoeRq5lkB64Pn >> zDCJANGd5PZxtcTBgYJkZCK+sNjzycThkS1UP8pKdajbyQNlbRWkDFbQwMQ0DQEa >> IanX3BioesZmfashzRu+khdczhLVtFLKLUT7/yI2RqQOekx5sO+HqzTIiIIp5mkd >> KbOBvdIvnaz5FI94I8jk >> =OyB3 >> -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- >> > > > > -- The older a man gets, the farther he had to walk to school as a boy.
