What's web browser do you use ?
Have you try with Mozilla ?
Have you try to access to a IPv6 only site (http://www.ipv6.cnit.it for
exemple) ?

Install BIND9 and:
use AAAA record for forward
use PTR record for reverse
DNS server work same in IPv4 and IPv6.

What's error message do you have after this ?
object exist ? (i think yes because MNT-6BONE exist)

The mntner objects must free for register like domains...
