    Hi all,

    I just purchased a *.expert domain, but I don't know if my server/network will be ready for IPv6?

    What can I look for or do to start using IPv6 domains?

    Regards,

    All current Linux distributions support IPv6, so all you have to do is that you add the IPv6 addresses to the network configuration of your server. On Debian and Ubuntu it is the file /etc/network/interfaces.

    Would you have a sample of how would you enter the information on the interfaces file?

    Wouldn't I have to edit the hosts file too?

    This is a default ubuntu server 14.04 with perfect server how-to setup.
