For that matter … anybody know how to get an IPv6 address, if your ISP doesn’t simply give them out? My first suggestion would be to get in touch with your ISP. All the big carriers are looking at v6, some are actually talking about it, and some are even beginning to support it. Which means

If we only cared about the client/server model, IPv4 and NAT would be just fine, now and for decades to come. The real value-add of IPv6 is peer to peer. But in order for that to be logistically possible, a client needs to know the IP address of another client, and one thing I know for *dang* sur
