Last week I decided that it would be nice to play around with IPv6. XS4ALL, my provider has a tunnelbroker for its customers and there even is a (beta) generator for a debian config. But I got quite fustrated that I couldn't get it up and running. So this morning I decided to try and ping6 the other end of the tunnel from a IPv6 enabled Shellbox my provider runs for its customers. I couldn't ping6 the end of the tunnel from this machine as well. So maybe there was nothing wrong with what I was doing after all... The tunnelbroker is an experimental service with no support so I decided to post something in a newsgroup. These newsgroups are monitored by the admins of XS4ALL as well and quite soon the tunnel was reset and my IPv6 connection up and running. Only thing I have to do is poke a few holes in the firewall and configure stuff like Apache.
