Congratulations! Yep, it works. Your Telnet BBS BTW also answers on IPv6.

I say, you guys over there are lucky. Here the big ISPs are still dragging their feet. My ISP has been making promises for five years now. "We will roll it out next year"... Well, it seems they are now FINALLY doing some pilots. But only for clients with a specific brand of cable modem. My old Motorola surfboard is still doing well, so I will have to wait at least another year...


Cheers, Michiel
