# If InspIRCd is built for IPV6, and you wish to accept IPV4 clients, #
-# then you must specify your IPV6 clients in the following form: #
-# ::ffff:1.2.3.4, where 1.2.3.4 is the IPV4 address to bind the #
-# port on. If InspIRCd is built for IPV4 connections (this is the #
-# default) then you do not need to prefix your addresses like this. #
+# then you can specify IPV4 ip addresses here to bind. You may also #
+# use the 4in6 notation, ::ffff:1.2.3.4, where 1.2.3.4 is the IPV4 #
+# address to bind the port, but as of InspIRCd 1.1.1, this is not #
+# required. #
+# #
+# ------------------------------------------------------------------- #
+# #
+# PLEASE NOTE: If you have build InspIRCd as an ipv6 server, and you #
+# specify an empty bind address, the binding will be bound to ALL THE #
+# IPV6 IP ADDRESSES, and not the ipv4 addresses. If you are using an #
+# ipv6 enabled InspIRCd and want to bind to multiple IPV4 addresses #
+# in this way, you must specify them by hand. If you have built the #
+# server for ipv4 connections only, then specifying an empty bind #
+# address binds the port to all ipv4 IP addresses, as expected. #

-# NOTE: If you have built InspIRCd with IPV6 support, and you want #
-# to link to an IPV4 server, you must specify the IP address in the #

+# #
+# NOTE: If you have built your server as an ipv6 server, then when a #
+# DNS lookup of a server's host occurs, AAAA records (ipv6) are #
+# priorotized over A records (ipv4). Therefore, if the server you are #
+# connecting to has both an IPV6 ip address and an IPV4 ip address in #
+# its DNS entry, the IPV6 address will *always* be selected. To #
+# change this behaviour simply specify the IPV4 IP address rather #
+# than the hostname of the server. #

-# NOTE: If you have built InspIRCd with IPV6 support, and you want #
