ipv6

I had configured an ipv6 tunnel on my soekris router/fw since a long time, but I had never spent any time to actually make it an ipv6-gateway for all my machines. Configured radvd.conf (need to checkout how dhcpv6 behaves..) opened up a couple of forwading rules and sysctl's and here we go:

michele@eeepc:~$ ping6 -n ipv6.google.com
PING ipv6.google.com(2001:4860:0:1001::68) 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 2001:4860:0:1001::68: icmp_seq=1 ttl=52 time=546 ms
64 bytes from 2001:4860:0:1001::68: icmp_seq=2 ttl=52 time=340 ms

Finally I can open www.openldap.org at a reasonable speed ;)
