When you'll have to connect through a NAT wall to a server, you'll be damn ot of luck. And the possibility to achieve something in a weird way through a ten thousand of backdoors does not justify the dismissal of a cool technology that would make it just too easy to handle. Not to mention IPv4 is far too dangerous. I've had to write heaps of reports saying that you can spoof a personality using IPv4 security holes, just because some person was under accusation of things he's never done. Remember Rubin Carter, 1976?

I'm getting through with bind9 pretty well, actually.
Well, one can argue about the advantages of extended technology, but as long as they can save lifes (philosophically speaking), no way to argue with me. I'd never let people get arrested because I don't have ganas to introduce newer technologies! Do you understand my point?
