Title: Request: IPv6 Support
Post by: MicroLord on February 07, 2006, 08:32:39 PM

in a few years was IPv4 full outdated and anope must be IPv6 Compatible.
I think it was good when the Developers begin to work on that.
And some Networks / IRCd's have IPv6 Support allready.

my box has IPv6 support
I can make a test-shell for anope, but the ports 6660-6670 are reserved for the Network ;)

If you want, i can make a shell for denora too ;)

I will drop you a line later, did  was reading on IPV6 and think I can figure it out based off what I was reading and get it working rather simply.

Title: IPv6
Post by: Johnny on May 26, 2006, 06:38:40 PM

Adding support for ipv6 should ony require a few lines of code. This -> because anope services forward recved string countaining host information. In fact if you look at base64.c (used with NICKIP+NICKv2) ipv6 is already used for that reason, or at least its a possibility...

that is for it take hosts that are IPV6.. what microlord wants is a way to use IPV6 to connect, requires alot more code

RemoteServer    [::1] 6667 "mypass"

That should tkae tike 20 lines extra. Yes to be honoust it would be nice to see anope prepared..
