There is no "official" say about the former. Not anything as far as I can tell. Additionally, there are probably many people who rather write 'ping6 ::123.123.123.123' than calculate in the head 123=0x7b (or all four in a more complex scenario) and type 'ping6 2002:7b7b:7b7b::1'. -- Pekka Savola "Tell me of difficulties surmounted, Netcore Oy not those you stumble over and fall" Systems.
