[webmin-devel] Make the Nework Configuration module IPv6 compliant

[Sébastien D. <seb...@b2...>]

Hello,

I'm new to the Webmin community and I'd like to ask you a few questions. 
The company where I work,  B2i, would like to use Webmin to configure 
network parameters on some machines. We've tried the "Network 
Configuration" module and we like it. The only problem is , it is not 
IPv6 compliant ! So we'd like to know whether a development making this 
module IPv6 compliant is actually in progress or not .

If yes, we can help ! If not, we can develop it ourself, but before, we 
want to ask you some questions to be sure that we have the "Webmin way 
of thinking" ;-)

 First of all, do you think it is a better idea to make a different 
module just for IPv6 and not modifiy the IPv4 one ? We've managed to 
modify the IPv4 one to make it IPv6 compliant for debian OS, but to do 
that, we had to modify common libraries (like debian-linux-lib.pl to 
make the "check_ipaddress" method IPv6 compliant for example) :  what do 
you think about it ?


Sincerely,


Sebastien DUCLOUX
