[SunHELP] IPv6 on last OpenSolaris release

[Brad Walker]

I would encourage you to think about the illumos project.
http://wiki.illumos.org/display/illumos/About+illumos

It is actively being developed. There are several distributions. And if you
are really trying to run OpenSolaris, then why not use something that has
active development and support for any problems you might have.
