When I installed FreeBSD onto my server it setup an IPv6 address, funky I thought although I'm never going to use it. Anyway my Mac is also built on BSD and it too has an IPv6 address. So I tried a normal ping but it only supports IPv4 so I tried typing ping6 and it worked! Cool!
So anyway I now have two computers talking to each other with IPv6.

Also that connection is running over my wireless, pretty fast I thought. :)
