MS SQL Server 2000 IPv6

Question

Does anyone know if SQL Server 2000 supports IPv6? I did some googling around, but I'm not finding any documentation on it.

I very much doubt it. MS, IIRC, first released experimental support for IPv6 well after 2000. I doubt it would be retro-fitted to such a critical product until it was a mainstream part of the OS (ie. Windows Server 2008).
I haven't found much for any discussing it out there, but I imagine you're probably right. I'm sure I'll find out soon enough when we start converting over to IPv6, and SQL 2000 will probably just have to stay dual-stacked.
