    Looks like the hosting world is getting a little more complicated. ARIN, the organization that assigns internet addresses is now asking hosting companies to use a name-based system rather than the older IP address based system. www.arin.net And

      Won't this just hasten the move to IPv6? Kind regards, Al. VBer who wants to go back to, but will have to learn again, C++. I'll carry on using VB for the front-end; so when I get proficient at C++/STL can I jump straight to ATL and avoid the MFC

        Probably. I don't know the schedule for IPv6, but when I think about all the routers, email servers, code, operating systems, debugging tools, code, programs, documents and other pieces that will have to be upgraded or replaced, I get a cold chill up my back. Anyone know what version of a browser you have to have to have the appropriate header in the request? Is a version 4 or greater item? (for those not in the know, this name based addressing scheme is based on having the desired web addressed included in the HTTP request header...

            According to Microsoft, "If the browser is HTTP 1.1 compliant (for example, Internet Explorer 3.x and later, or Netscape Navigator 3.x and later), the HTTP header contains the actual domain name requested. IIS uses this to determine which site should answer the request. " (http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q190/0/08.ASP) For my own website (www.NJTheater.com), that would mean just 39 of the last 9266 visitors weren't using a browser good enough (ie, a 99.579% success rate)
