Hmm, you have to be able to route/forward ICMP type 41, which is ipv6 icmp
stuff.
It IS doable, at least in linux/freebsd using NAT, but it's no preferrable.
If Sygate can't do ICMP, you're out of luck, maybe you could pick up a cheap
486 and convince your dad to let you use linux/freebsd for NAT ? :)
