ah.  i'm unfamiliar with them - this one looked different at first  
glance than ipv6 examples I've seen in the past.

the issue is that i log/track according to ip.   all my db fields are  
varchar(15) in postgres, to account for ipv4 addresses.

there are too many fields/apps to update, and I only pull the ip  
address once in each app using a shared library item - so the easiest  
way to fix things would be to force ipv4 on there.

odd that the mac suddenly started using iipv6 to talk to each other.   
i didn't even know my router could support it.
