The problem is not that Sword (or anything else) uses anonymous
ftp.<br>
The problem is that you have a buggy ftp server that fails in the
presence of IPv6.<br>
And it's not even failing on IPv6 itself -- network connectivity
works -- but on some authentication mechanism that is somehow
mis-tied to IPv6.<br>
<br>
This has not a whit to do with "the gradual shift from IPv4 to
IPv6." "IPv4 -vs- IPv6" and "HTTP -vs- FTP" are orthogonal; a
change in one has nothing necessarily to do with the other. This
has to do with unfinished software such as your ftp server.<br>
