   Does ftp-ing to ftp.netbsd.org over ipv6 work for other folks?

       => Attempting to fetch pkg_install-20020218.tar.gz from ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/distfiles/.
       => [79023 bytes]
       Trying 3ffe:8050:201:1860:2a0:c9ff:feed:b7ea...
       Connected to ftp.netbsd.org.

       421 Service not available, remote server timed out. Connection closed
       ftp: Can't connect or login to host `ftp.netbsd.org'

   All I get is a long hang, followed by a hint that I need to ftp this
   by hand.  

   (If IPV6 isn't meant to work on this machine can someone please take
   the AAAA record out of the DNS?)

Sometimes, maybe most of the time....  My current working thought is that
it depends on whether or not ftp.netbsd.org could reverse my v6 address.
Web surfing works fine using v6, often ftp does what you describe for me,
too.
