SysAdmin’s Diary

Debian-Administration.org, one of the primary resource for Debian (as well as other Linux distro) System Administrator, is now can be accessed via IPv6, announced by Steve Kemp. I reckon this is such a great news for IPv6 fan!

As a quick hack I’ve enabled IPv6 access to this site.

If anybody could test access it would be appreciated.
