Dear author. Thank you for bringing such a convenient web file sharing server to the Internet,But now there is a big problem in the server, that is, the global public network IPv4 has been exhausted.At present, most broadband service providers always use nat-ipv4 to enable multiple users to share a public IPv4 address,Because dynamic DNS can only be realized on the basis that users directly hold a dynamic public network IPv4,Therefore, now individual users cannot use dynamic DNS to share their files with the outside world However, now the new version 6 network protocol has become more and more mature, which has perfectly solved the problem of depletion of IPv4 in the global public network. However, the new version 6 network protocol has become more and more mature, which has perfectly solved the problem of depletion of IPv4 in the global public network. At this stage, most of the leading broadband service providers have access to IPv6 network and promised to assign no less than / 60 prefix to individual users. However, some backward small broadband service providers have not yet access to IPv6 network, Therefore, I suggest that you should support dual protocol stack as soon as possible, that is, both V4 and V6. It not only facilitates the use of individual users who do not have public network V4 but have public network V6, but also facilitates users with only V4 network access to access the sharing stations provided by their friends.

hi, did you try 2.4 ? https://github.com/rejetto/hfs2/releases/tag/v2.4-rc07 i attempted ipv6 support there. sadly i don't have an ipv6 ISP, so i cannot make tests myself.

also, HFS 3 is on its way and it supposed also to support ipv6. https://github.com/rejetto/hfs/releases
