I just checked. Bear with me here:
In most imaged you will see for
printIt NetNameResolver useOldNetwork. "true"
If your VM and OS supports IPv6 (it should) you will see
printIt NetNameResolver hasIpv6PrimSupport. "true"
So you then can
doIt NetNameResolver enableIPv6: true.
If that worked, you will find
printIt NetNameResolver useOldNetwork. " false"
From now on, you will get more "interesting" network names. Look at the result of
NetNameResolver localHostAddress.
NetNameResolver localHostName.
(note that those are typically NOT localhost)
Also you should see
printIt NetNameResolver addressForName: 'localhost'. "::1(localhost),0(0)"
-=-=-=-=-=-=-
So far so good.
If you now try to, for example get some IPv6-enabled url, your should see
printIt (WebClient httpGet: 'http://ipv6-test.com') status. " 'HTTP/1.1 200 OK'"
But this won't probably work _unless_ you have the fixes in your image which I uploaded just 5 minutes ago (WebClient-topa.110, Network-topa.205) ;)
