>> When IPv6 offers something end users or ISPs value over IPv4+NAT. > Hah, interesting thought! :-) Perhaps we should push for people to > use the IPv4+NAT kludge, A very large number of folks are using IPv4+NAT now, mostly without complaint (or even awareness). I use it myself quite frequently. In a limited (albeit typical) mode of communication, NAT works just fine. IPv6, on the other hand, does NOT work for the vast majority of people on the Internet. > Two seperately NAT'ed hosts don't communicate enough today for > more than a "priviledge few" to discover all the issues with it. You are expecting people who have been trained to expect to have to reboot periodically and/or reinstall entire operating systems when they have problems to get annoyed when they have difficulties trying to communicate to a remote site because of NAT? If/when folks run into difficulties due to NAT, I suspect they'll just shrug their shoulders, mumble something about broken web sites, and fine another porn^H^H^H^Hcontent site that works. Rgds, -drc
