Hello, thank you for your interest in Microsoft's IPv6 plans.

We do not plan to support NetBios on IPv6.  In the future we believe all
network communications will be IP-based.  I hope this answers your
question.

If you have any further questions in the future please feel free to
utilize our news group at: Microsoft.public.platformssdk.networking.ipv6

Thanks
