Why is it so hard for windows admins to copy some text from the command line into an e-mail? Today I received two traceroute outputs attached to an e-mail as BMP.
AFAIR Windows is able to do a copy’n*paste form the CLI this since when? NT? 2000?
Weather was great today in Berlin so I decided to take a walk after voting. I also wanted some Cappuccino so I stopped at the local Starbucks in Berlin Spandau. There was one guest inside and one guy from Starbucks cleaning the windows. Nobody there to serve anything. 
So I went on and found another cafe and ordered a Cappuccino there (which wasn’t very good). On my way back I stopped at the Barfly and had another Cappuccino. As usual friendly service and good quality.
So no more Starbucks in Spandau for me. Thank you for not taking my money.
Sometimes it takes weeks for a (non IT) company to answer emails. Sometimes they answer your request by sending a letter. Or they attach a word document with the answers to your questions. Or they don’t answer at all.
Yesterday I send a email to a hotline and about 30min later they called me on my mobile phone and answered my question.
(Before you ask: The number in my mail signature)
In some cases you might want to make an old Apache 1.3 accessible via IPv6. If you have control over your DNS and a machine that is running IPv4 and IPv6 this is quite easy:
Add a AAAA Record to your DNS
ipv6 AAAA 2001:db8:dead:beaf::1
and add an Apache virtual host to your Apache configuration:
<VirtualHost ipv6.example.com>
ServerName ipv6.example.com
ProxyPass / http://www.example.com/
ProxyPassReverse / http://www.example.com/
</VirtualHost>
There are several people started implementing IPv6 in there home or company networks after one of my talks.
If you are reading this, attended on of my talks and implemented IPv6 after that please add a comment. 
Hello,
my name is Jens and I’m actually buying music. Amazon selling mp3′s which can be downloaded even under Linux supported me with this. And I’m also buying CDs and DVDs.
But is Blind Guardian relay pop music?

There are a lot of people who think that IPv6 will be have it’s breakthrough when GNU Hurd is being released. Well, other than GNU Hurd IPv6 is working pretty well and is hopefully coming soon. But please feel free to ignore IPv6 as long as you want. You can hire me if when it’s to late.
And what if I’m wrong and IPv6 is still not coming for the next 5 years? Well I wasted some time, learned a lot about networking in general, went to some interesting conferences, met interesting people and had a good time.
And remember: If the projections are correct IANA will give away the last unallocated /8 away in less than 2 years.

88.74.yyy.xxx is my machine at home. I’ve done this tracerroute while accessing the free WLAN at Prague airport which only offers HTTP access.
I’m sitting at the airport in Prague on my way back from Krakow where I gave a presentation on planing IPv6 networks at the 3rd PLNOG meeting.
It was a very nice conference and very well organized. I met several interesting people and heard several interesting talks. There were three talks alone (including mine) on how important it is do start learning and implementing IPv6 now. Let’s hope that a least some people where listening to us. Slides of my talk can be found here .
Thanks again for the great organization and the great time in Krakow.
