I might be missing something here, but isn't that format already valid for any IPv6 address, not just the special v4-in-v6 representation? >>> import socket >>> p = '2001:abcd::192.16.10.10' >>> n = socket.inet_pton(socket.AF_INET6, p) >>> socket.inet_ntop(socket.AF_INET6, n) '2001:abcd::c010:a0a' Or is the issue just the ntop part not giving you back the decimalized string? -- Chip Marshall <c...@2bithacker.net> http://weblog.2bithacker.net/ KB1QYW PGP key ID 43C4819E v4sw5PUhw4/5ln5pr5FOPck4ma4u6FLOw5Xm5l5Ui2e4t4/5ARWb7HKOen6a2Xs5IMr2g6CM
