Re: IPV6 as tunnle for more IPV4 URLs?
You should try to keep things simple:
If you are wanting an IPv6 solution now for all your computers then consider getting yourself an IPv6 subnet. If your usual ISP does not provide you with this option you should consider using a service, such as http//www.sixxs.net/ which can. Also, because of the shear number of IPv6 addresses you will most likely get a static address for your computers. If you aren't wanting to spend any money, then take a look at »freedns.afraid.org/ who allow you to register an AAAA (IPv6 entry) the name of your computer.
If you are still wanting to cater to an IPv4 crowd, and you are only wanting to share HTTP, then consider using an HTTP server, such as Apache, that has virtual server support and then using a service such as dyndns.org for the names. Basically this allows a web server to serve up a different web site based on the name that was used to access it, even if the IP address is the same.
Remember when you go IPv6 to make sure your firewall rules are in place. It is easy to forget that what you set up for IPv4 is not necessarily in place for IPv6.
