As you might remember, one year ago we participated in World IPv6 day by permanently turning on IPv6 access for our main website (www.distributed.net). Today, we made the next step towards embracing IPv6 by adding AAAA records to our proxy keyserver DNS addresses and by releasing our first set of IPv6-capable dnetc clients on our pre-release download page, as version v2.9111.520. There should be no additional client configuration changes needed for the client to utilize IPv6 once your OS has been properly configured.
At the moment, we only have one of our keyservers currently configured to handle IPv6 connections and our pre-release page only has IPv6 clients for Solaris/SunOS, however we will be adding more over the next few days. Updated personal proxies that support IPv6 will also be made available in the coming weeks. We welcome bug reports on bugs.distributed.net if you encounter any connectivity problems with our new releases.
Happy IPv6 ![]:8)](https://blogs.distributed.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_tinycow.png){kind=icon}
