IPv6
I don't expect much here. Just please include the precompiled ipv6.o in the modules directory for the next RAIDiator release. :D

Not really the point - IPv6 means every device can have a unique IP address and so (if required) be fully accessible from the internet. No need for NAT and the reserved subnets such as 192.168.x.x, no messing with port mapping/triggering and the like. In fact no need for ports as each service could have its own IP address
Consider ReadyNAS Remote: It creates a secure link by assigning an additional separate IP address to the NAS, manages access to that via the netgear proxy service with the service opening ports as required and then implementing some form of encryption to secure the data. Such a capability is built directly into IPv6
