    I've reverted the IPv6 name for now, but we should probably change the
    hub to n3.z21.bbs.leenooks.net - that way it'll always point to the
    right place.

    I could set up a CNAME to that if you want, I was thinking we establish some naming convention in the fsxnet.nz domain space for HUBs and promote those addresses to nodes... something like net3.fsxnet.nz or similar.. what do you think?

    So, just pondering a naming convention.

    net1.fsxnet.nz

    hub1.fsxnet.nz

    ..then I'm all tapped out - ha!

    I'm working on this now.

    I'm still setup to poll/send to alterant.leenooks.net. Should I be
    changing this to n3.z21.bbs.leenooks.net?

    Yes you can.
    I am in the middle of drafting an email, but was going to wait sending
    it until
    Avon decides on his CNAME idea.
    At the end of the day, Avon's CNAME will point to n3.z21.... so by you using that directly, or whatever Avon configures - it will still work.

    I have set net3.fsxnet.nz to CNAME to this new schema you have set at your
    end. If you do have any specific v4 or v6 addresses I can point to down the track let me know so I can set a A or AAAA record for it :)

    Let's see if this works (I'll change the HUB soon and test poll you) and if
    so I will update some of the fsx docs..

    Looks good from here:

    net3.fsxnet.nz is an alias for n3.z21.bbs.leenooks.net. n3.z21.bbs.leenooks.net is an alias for fidohub.leenooks.net. fidohub.leenooks.net has address 101.186.5.106
    fidohub.leenooks.net has IPv6 address 2001:8003:4c06:5742:f1d0:a:1:1

    I changed the Mystic HUB over to poll you using the new domain, also seems
    fine :)

    Hmmm.. surprised you came in over IPv4 - I thought you had IPv6?

    I know you can setup "preferences" to use one over the other that might
    be in play here...

    Yep it is, just tried IPv6 and got this
