Has anyone played with IPv6 on 2000/XP/2003 and if so, what results have you found?

Cheers,

Tarzanboy, you have just hit me over the head! Why have I not checked it out? I don't know, but give me the weekend to do so.
IPv6 is the next generation of TCP/IP with 128 bits worth of addresses compared to v4 with 32 bits. Basically gives us enough addresses that each hair on everyones head could have an address. (Maybe an exageration?)

I have been debating about playing with it a bit myself. Mainly I was thinking of using it with a system functioning as a 6 to 4 router: Internal for IPv6 and External for IPv4.

The IPv6 page for Windows XP and Windows Server 2003:

IPv6 Installation Guide for Windows 2000:

IPv6 main page (includes download, FAQ and support newsgroup links) for Windows 2000:

There currently is an ICMP vulnerability with the Windows2k/XP/2k3 implementation, which is discussed here:
