As far as I know, yes. But Deuce is really the IPv6 guy.

That "failed" is something.

That host is apparently IPv6 only and I don't have IPv6 setup here, so I can't
really test it. Deuce (you can find him in #synchronet at irc.synchro.net) is
really the IPv6 guy, so he should be able to help.

There's a module called tickit (http://wiki.synchro.net/module:tickit) which
uses the nodelist_handler.js, again, Deuce. :-)
