Ok, I originally posted this to plug.. but I meant it to go here. Any
apache gurus able to explain this?

So, I upgraded apache and added ipv6 support.

First, the new apache borked on my VirtualHost style.
I had been doing:
NameVirtualHost *
<VirtualHost *>
options and junk
</VirtualHost>

I had to change the *'s to my IP to make it actually work...

Second, making it listen on my IPv6 interface broke SSL somehow..
After many trials/errors, I came up with:
Listen 0.0.0.0:80
Listen :: 80
<IfDefine SSL>
Listen 0.0.0.0:443
Listen :: 443
</IfDefine>

This works.. finally.
So, when visiting via IPv6 its just serving the default page, not my "main
page" which happens to be a VirtualHost. I ended up making:
<VirtualHost [2001:470:1f01:ffff::ed]:80> and just pointing it at the
correct directory.
It all seems to work, but what a pita. I tried listing NameVirtualHost with
both addrs, and then:
<VirtualHost <ip addr>:80 [2001:470:1f01:ffff::ed]:80>
The docs say this works.. but it again simply serves up the default
directory. I can't seem to make vhosts work with IPv6, is the real issue then.

Is there a way to say "listen on all interfaces, and treat vhosts the same,
no matter what IP they come from". It should 'just work' like this, with my
previous configuration of:
Listen *:80
Listen *:443
And vhosts stuff with *

But the newest apache complains that things are being defined more than
once if you don't use '*'. I'm assuming this is because it is trying to
"register" a single vhost with both IP addrs, which is what I really want :)

Ideas? Seems like people running vhosts with 2 IPs on the same machine
should have run into the same thing.
