Re: IPv6

Thanks you. searching for Apache I found the answer:

"Now, the apache I use is IPv6 enabled and when a visitor using IPv4
loads the page containing that script it displays an IPv4 mapped IPv6
address like ::ffff:24.65.128.105."

<?php
$IP=$REMOTE_ADDR;
print "your ip is $IP;
?>

I think it is safe to assume the Apache on i will return the IPv6 address.

In all new files, it will be safe to reserve room for an IPv6 address
and store there the IPv4 meanwile.

REMOTE_ADDRESS is an environment variable supplied by Apache. It has no relevance to CGIDEV2 per-say, other than CGIDEV2 provides a procedure to retrieve environment variables.

I guess you question is really will Apache supply an IPv6 address in this same environment variable or is there a different one for that. I would have thought that the Apache docs would be the first port of call.

Will CGIDEV2 work in an IPv6 network?

The sample shows how to get the client's addres:
getenv('REMOTE_ADDR':QUSEC), it does work with IPv4,
will it work in IPv6?
what will be the format of the address returned?

We are getting a new P7, and I will like to set it up to use IPv6
mainly, and IPv4 for compatiblity.
