Hi there.

 

Has anyone compiled a list of pros/cons on various flavors of Linux specific
to IPv6?  I realize that's  a really broad question..

 

Specific example would be that we're primarily a CentOS shop - during some
testing today found out that connection tracking is broken in 5.6 version
(after all kinds of Google hits).  I understand 6.0 (recently released)
fixes this issue.  I have not seen this issue in Debian for example to date.

 

Any input would be appreciated - my question isn't regarding which version
folks like better, it's specifically what version works best in an IPv6
server related environment.

 

Thanks,

 

Paul
