Hi, 2012/5/25 AlbyVA alb...@empire.org: [...] In short, anybody who is in the Internet Networking field ought to start considering retooling their network for v6. Once the RIR's run out, v4 space will become a commodity that will be horse traded on eBay. Because only the ISPs and/or their

For instance Germany has the best coverage at 345/105 servers (v4/v6). Most other countries are much worse. Denmark has 37/3. Spain 19/2. Italy 25/1. Sweden 24/2. Russia 94/6. Hungary 64/7. Ukraine 73/4. Australia 60/4. Canada 59/5. Even Japan are just at 21/3. Most of the

I already deleted it but somewhere in this thread people asked about places that support IPv6. I got a dedicated server from kimsufi.ie (they have a bunch of various TLDs for different countries but .ie (ireland) is where you go if in US) that's fairly inexpensive. Downside for someone in US is

One of my servers is from Hetzner [1]. It's located in Germany. They're also inexpensive and offer native IPv6 even with their vServers. You can do almost anything with it as long as it's legal, they don't forbid any services. Regards, Thomas On 10.05.2012 18:49, Todd Eddy wrote: I already

Does anybody know of an IPv6 OpenVPN service? Currently I have FiOS and Verizon is blocking just about all useful ports, including NTP. As a result, I've setup my FreeBSD box with a VPN link using OpenVPN to Strongvpn.com for my NTP server. Works like a charm so I could put it into the pool. But

The Tunnel I'm using is in the same region. So no cross country tunneling. :) StrongVPN has 215 servers in 10 US locations, one of which is just down the road from me. So lag times should be negligible. On Wed, May 9, 2012 at 9:59 PM, Dave Hart daveh...@gmail.com wrote: On Thu, May 10,
