6to4 tunneling using a cable modem

[Daniel Morgan]

I'm interested in learning IPv6, and it seems the best way to learn it
is to use it.  Thus, I have several questions about 6to4 tunneling.

Can a home user using a cable modem that only assigns a dynamic IPv4
address be used in 6to4 tunneling?  My cable internet is provided by
Road Runner.

What is the easiest operating system to do IPv6 with: FreeBSD, Linux,
Solaris, or Windows NT?
I will assume, for the moment, that Linux is the easiest since so much
code and information is available for it, but you can prove me wrong.

How do I enable 6to4 support in Linux to work with a cable modem?

And I guess the most important question is how do I get a IPv6 address
connected somehow to the 6BONE?

Is there any ISPs willing to provide a IPv6 address to a home user in
the southeastern United States?

Thanks in advance,
Daniel Morgan
