That is a bit the fate of a system integrator :-)

That is fine with me. I can provide a default for sshd_config if needed.

That is what I call the real world. If you are full IPv6 is your ISP
doing the address translation for you, e.g. who is providing you with an
IPv4 address for us poor retarded folks who only now about IPv4. To me
it still feels like another dimension I don't know about, like the two
dimensional things that cannot think in the third.

For example if I want to access a site which is IPv6 only, but I am
living in the IPv4 word and do not even know about IPv6, who is doing
the routing and translation stuff for me? I dont know about the
transition mechanisms.

In the meantime I did some more stuff on the kernel config, mainly
because I have a number of WRAP boxes deployed and in the current
setting the SCx200 modules are just missing. I will probably only use
the watchdog timer but the driver architecture in recent 2.6 has changed
dramatically as compared to 2.4, so more things are required. I will
report when I know more.

One more thing, would you agree to a move to a recent haserl version, we
are still on 0.8. Else I would have to fork off webconf and with the
size limitations falling away there is no reason for not having a
powerful web interface anymore.

Guten Rutsch
