Deep Space 6 Publishes New IPv6 Status Pages

Mauro Tortonesi writes "The Deep Space 6 initiative publishes the first of the new IPv6 Status Pages: Current Status of IPv6 Support for Networking Applications. The IPv6 Status Pages are a survey of the current status of IPv6 support for the Linux networking stack, system libraries and networking applications. At the moment there is only one page concerning the IPv6 support of Linux networking applications, but we are planning to publish more pages soon and to extend our target to other important UNIX-derived OSes (e.g. *BSD) too."

    Matrix reloaded. When Trinity typed:
    ssh 10.0.0.2
    I realised that IPv6 is doomed.

      Ah, but if you remember that The Matrix is a computer simulation of "the height of your time", ie 1999 - 2001 approximately, then it is not necessarily doomed.

      Plus it was undoubtedly easier for the machines to program a neural simulation that contained IPv4. ;)

      What's more, she did ssh -l root 10.0.0.2 and used *password* authentication. "The Architect" doesn't know shit about security. Allowing root access and not using public key authentication?? It's no wonder the Matrix keeps getting hacked. Forget about Agents, let's install a Kerberos realm and implement IPSec before "The Boss" fires "The Architect", "The Oracle" (btw, is she the DBA?), and the rest of the IT staff ("The Helpdesk")...

    With a name like Deep Space 6, they should really be using Cisco routers...

    I figured IPV6 was more like Deep Space Nine, neither one's going anywhere...

    If your theory is different from practice, then your theory is wrong.
