Oh, man, you are messing up _everything_ here ! DNS name length has nothing to do with IPv6 address length. DNS maps _names_ to _addresses_ or vice versa. We will always need DNS or something similar. Phone numbers hawe nothing to do with IPv6 address length and a decimal digit uses less than 4 bits anyway. 10^32 < 2^107 My least wish is to start a flame. Please do not continue the thread. -- Paul Chitescu pchitescu@pchitescu.myip.org  |  pchitescu@MetroNet.RO.EU.org http://pchitescu.myip.org/    |  http://PaulC.MetroNet.RO.EU.org/ ICQ:22641673
