Re: dual stack & IPv6 on by default

For edification.  I have a node on a work LAN that knows nothing of IPv6.  I
download software and configure my node to be capable of IPv6. I manually
configure my interface to support IPv6.  I now ftp to an IPv6 address.  This
is not going to work.  But I was stupid to think it would?  Is this the kind
of basic mistake your also worried about?

Alternate scenario:
We ship our system so they configure IPv6 ON by default on all interface.
User install this machine on his v4-only network and now experiment
larger than usual delays to connect to his favorite servers.
User call customer support.
This is what I worried about.
