Operating System Applications with IPv6 Functionality Included Internet Explorer telnet ftp ftpd Microsoft Network Monitor

Coming Soon.net Server, now in beta and to be released in 2H2002: IPv6 compliant IIS IPv6 compliant Micosoft Media Server “Anything that runs over MS RPC should just work.” Alledgedly every Microsoft application group is working on IPv6 compliance, but timetables are uncertain.

Open Software with IPv6 Support within Windows XP NTemacs Teraterm Pro with SSH Cygwin with IPv6 extensions Apache with IPv6 extensions for win32 NcFTP Windump Emacs

Open Source Porting Problems Sylpheed supports IPv6 with FreeBSD and Linux, but doesn’t appear to work with Windows XP Mozilla supports IPv6 on FreeBSD and Linux, but not for Windows. This is apparently because Windows XP doesn’t support IPv4- mapped IPv6 addresses Mozilla developer said there is some interest in making mozilla IPv6-capable on Windows XP Look for a Windows single stack network architecture in 2003

Applications to be investigated … Wanderlust - “Yet another message interface on Emacsen” e.html#IMAGES
