127.0.0.1's IPv6 equivalent
I was bored so I started reading up on IPv6. Wikipedia says that ::1/128 is the equivalent of localhost. So, I stuck "http://[::1/128]" in the URL bar and it doesn't work and I am running a webserver on this computer (localhost and 127.0.0.1 work fine) Is there something I'm missing here? (This isn't really a serious problem...I'm just bored).

Should be http://::1/128 .. And apache should be configured to bind to ipv6 too...GWsux wrote:I was bored so I started reading up on IPv6. Wikipedia says that ::1/128 is the equivalent of localhost.
