when I first saw the spec for IPv6 I mistakenly thought they'd done away
with ports entirely, and that you'd just use an IP range for a server
for different services... but that would be a mess for DNS, having to
use a different hostname for ssh rather than http etc, a physical host
would likely use a subdomain in that scheme (ssh.myhost.mydomain.com vs
http.myhost.mydomain.com etc etc)
