I use IPv6 natively.  I also used it when I updated the Cygwin content on
the wiki and noticed no issues.

Fail2ban does currently support IPv6, I am running it.

I've not made a concerted effort to get the site up on IPv6. It has an
address, but no specific changes were made to enable/route/firewall IPv6.

If I were to put forth effort on that I'd also need to upgrade/config
"fail2ban" for IPv6 to keep from getting hassled by script-kiddies. I don't
currently have a way to test IPv6 from work or home.

Is IPv6 truly needed?
