Just amazing that my cable #isp #ziggo blocks tcp dport 25 outbound over #ipv4, but #ipv6 is fine apparently.
Still not very useful with a fixed reverse #DNS that ends in cable.dynamic.v6.ziggo.nl that #spamfilters seem to love.
Guess, I spoilered something for #BoxyBSD now.
@gyptazy I tried to migrate home network to #IPv6 until I traveled to #Finland : the #WiFi guest and my mobile operator were stuck on #IPv4. I cannot connect to my home server through #WireGuard (IPv6 only).
Then I re-enabled dual stack when I came back home 😅
My issue was not caused by a Finnish issue, except about WiFi connection. The root cause is that mobile operator provides only IPv4 on roaming.
@gyptazy I tried it with a couple of jails last year and it was a sad mess. I couldn't clone github repos and downloading certain things just didn't work but I found ways around it.
Then I went on a trip through multiple countries and it became an even bigger mess, because often I only had #IPv4 available and couldn't directly reach the services I had set up.
Sure, technically everything works fine on operating systems like #FreeBSD, #OpenBSD, #Debian, #Fedora etc. and all my monitoring, backup and admin infrastructure is #IPv6 only for years. But dealing with clients is something different. I think most clients already support #DualStack, especially within my circle but it could still be annoying for people that are forced to use #IPv4 only.
