Vista Isn’t Playing Well With IPv6…

Here’s the shock of the century, a Slashdot article about Vista having trouble with IPv6. I don’t know if anyone saw that news coming. I would have imagined it would have had decent support for it since IPv6 is becoming more known. Not to mention the fact that Apple has had good IPv6 support for some time now.

From the article:

‘We are seeing a number of applications that are IP-based that do not like the addressing scheme of IPv6,’ says one user. ‘We will send a print job to an IP-based printer, and the print job becomes corrupted. We’re seeing this with Window’s Vista machines. When IPv6 is installed, this happens without fail. As soon as we remove IPv6, all of our printer functions return to normal.’
