<question><para>Why do I get "Address family not supported" errors when playing with IPv6?</para></question>
<answer>
<para>IPv6 is fully supported and available right from the start with
Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008.</para>
<para>The previous generation of Windows,
Windows XP and Windows Server 2003, only support IPv6 on an "experimental"
basis. On these Windows versions, the IPv6 TCP/IP stack is not installed
automatically, rather the system administrator has to install it manually.
Unless this has already been done on your machine, your machine is not
IPv6-capable and that's why you see the "Address family not supported"
error message.</para>
<para>There's also a very experimental IPv6 stack for Windows 2000, and
Cygwin will try its best to support it, but it's not recommended to install
it. Windows NT4 or older never saw IPv6 at all.</para>
<para>For more information about IPv6 on Windows and how to install the
IPv6 stack, see the <ulink url="http://www.microsoft.com/technet/network/ipv6/ipv6faq.mspx">Microsoft TechNet IPv6 FAQ article</ulink>
