On another point: is there anywhere in the book that IPv6
can be gently introduced or is that too much to take on at the beginner's
stage?
I guess there are some ISPs that are using ipv6 now, but not mine.
Internally I also use a private ipv4 address space and my router does
NAT to the address given to me by the ISP.
That said, I think the ipv6 issues would be:
kernel configuration
/etc/hosts
/etc/resolv.conf
/etc/sysconfig/ifconfig.eth0
and possibly:
/sbin/ifup
/sbin/ifdown
/lib/services/ipv4-static
The last should work for ipv6 except for messages. The configuration
files should only need to specify the proper ipv6 address.
I really can't fully test ipv6. Is there something else?
