Hi,
Last Tuesday I got a delay notice triggered by an email I sent to the list. That's unimportant, but while looking at it I saw this header:
Received-SPF: none (Address does not pass the Sender Policy Framework) SPF=HELO; sender=lists4.suse.de; remoteip=::ffff:195.135.221.135; remotehost=lists4.suse.de; helo=lists4.suse.de; receiver=exa.billmerriam.com;
I noticed the ipv6 address, and I was curious to check who it was:
That is not an IPv6 address. IPv6 addresses are written with hex notation, e.g. 2001:888:10:90f::2 i.e. 8193.2184.16.2319.0.0.0.2 when written in decimal. What the meaning is of the '::ffff:' part I don't know, but it has nothing to do with IPv6 afaik. So your analysis has no meaning.

Actually, I believe it is. the :: refers to a continuous block of zeros. It's been a while since I read about it, but I believe the above is the way an IPv4 is expressed as an IPv6 address. -- Use OpenOffice.org http://www.openoffice.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
