Not when the server relies on name-based vhosting that requires digging through a month's worth of project management and change contrl and RFCs to modify.

That's the beauty of IPv6, you can waste billions and billions of addresses and still have plenty to spare.
They thought the same about IPv4 when it was invented.

And hey, if you have a problem with 2001:0000:3fa5:7B::3, then why not 2001:0000:3fa5:7B:7B::3 or 2001:0000:3fa5:7B:7B:7B:3.

You can have something like this -

2001:0000:3fa5:7B:1::3 // Servers
2001:0000:3fa5:7B:2::3 // VoIP
2001:0000:3fa5:7B:A::3 // Desktops
// etc.

You know, if you want. It's easy.
If you enjoy it so much, go ahead and do it. I'm not stopping you.

Meanwhile I'll continue to dislike IPv6 just as much as I dislike ATM or IPSec or salt and vinegar crisps regardless of whether you agree with my reasons or not.
