Hi,

Next to their IPv4 country and city database, Maxmind now also has an 
IPv6 country and city database at http://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/geolite

Is there a way I can make geo use the IPv6 databases too?

This does not work:

geoip_country /etc/nginx/GeoIP.dat;
geoip_country /etc/nginx/GeoIPv6.dat;
geoip_city /etc/nginx/GeoLiteCity.dat;
geoip_city /etc/nginx/GeoLiteCityv6.dat;

Because I see this error when checking the config:

nginx: [emerg] "geoip_country" directive is duplicate in 
/etc/nginx/nginx.conf:116

Thanks for any advice.

Regards,
Patrick
