Here's the story. The ISP that serves Seri Maya provides a NAT router for each building - we get CAT5 to each apartment with DHCP. Fair enough. But not for me! What!? No public IP address for me to use! Well, never let technology stand in my way. To make a long story short - I went out and got myself an IPv6 address and drove a tunnel through that damn Macrolynx router straight to my Vaio/Linux toy server and to prove it, here's the address - 2001:05c0:8fff:fffe::382d.

Oh - you don't have an IPv6 client? Never mind, I've also put a link up through an IPv4-IPv6 translator gateway and you can take a look at the lovely Hedy Lamarr - the inventor of spread spectrum radio - until I find something cooler to do with my new tunnel into the quasi-infinite address space that is 'six'.
