Actually we are using stateless form of DHCPv6 to announce DNS servers
with autoconf + static address comfiguration for servers. This is
satisfactory for a small organisation like us (less than 40 persons). We
are testing DHCPv6 also. For a larger organisation (>1000 computer) I will
ask my colleagues about their DHCPv6 experiences....
