[6bone] Ipv6 website still not resolved, sorry.

Allan, thanks for replying, copying this to the list one more time to try 
and get this thing licked once and for all,  if there is a problem  in my 
setup, then yes, the httpd.conf file is where I guess it would be - or it 
could be in the conf file of my Freenet6 tunnel, I am still not sure that I 
have configured it to broadcast on the correct interface. I can connect to 
any v6 only sites no problem.

However, it is difficult for me to track the problem as I don't have access 
to an IPv6 enabled machine 'outside' of my network. It works perfect inside 
the network, which I find strange as the internal computers still have to go 
'outside' to the internet, to DNS servers to FREENET6 , to sitelutions etc 
and then back into the network to my Server.

I am giving now all relevant info , if any more is required please let me 
know.

A ipv4 only computer, works as expected - it can connect to 
www.minitutorials.com, http://minitutorials.com, http://v4.minitutorials.com 
no problems but can not access http://v6.minitutorials.com.

An IPv6 enabled computer can access all sites including 
http://v6.minitutorials.com which has been configured as v6 only in the DNS 
settings of my sitelutions account.

Both IPv4 and IPv6 connections are reflected correctly in the script at the 
bottom of each page on the site. Can you see this script ok, does it 
recognise your connection as v6 ?

As for Apache and httpd.conf.

Initially I had problems enabling Apache 2 for IPv6, the binary release (I 
am using Windows) does NOT have v6 enabled on it but had to be compiled it, 
which I got from Kato, I know this is working as it accepts v6 addresses in 
the Listen and VirtualHost directives (whereas my original binary with v6 
support would not).

The relevant parts of my httpd.conf file are as follows, I may change this 
shortly, but this is the only configuration where I have got it to work on 
my computers here within the network.

..
..
Listen [::]:80 <---- Currently using this as advised in 6bone, gloms onto 
all v6 addresses.
Listen 0.0.0.0:80
#Listen [3ffe:bc0:8000::3c6b]  <---- This is my tunnel endpoint address 
assigned by Freenet6, not tried this yet.
..
..
#NamevirtualHost [3ffe:bc0:8000::3c6b] <----Freenet6 Tunnel again. Not used.
NameVirtualHost *:80
NameVirtualHost *[3ffe::]:80 <---- Interesting how this lets the server 
start, tried [::]:80 and server would not start.
..
..

# The second VirtualHost above has no effect, does not get served, so first

Relevent details of Freenet6 tspc.conf file

server=tsps2.freenet6.net
if_tunnel=2 <---- See ipv6if.txt, is this right ? (I see the new client does 
not use this)
host_type=router  <---- Assumed this setting, other option was 'host' , not 
sure if this is right ??
prefixlen=48
if_prefix=4 <---- Interface used for router advertisement. See ipv6if.txt ?
#DNS Server for reverse DNS
#dns_server=           <--- Not used currently, what does this need to be.?

Now that freenet6 is hexago, maybe I need to download and configure a new 
client.?
Anyone from hexago/freenet6 here to confirm this/my setup.

doing an ipv6 if tells me that :-

(file attached showing output)

Interface 2 is Automatic Tunnelling Pseudo Interface , preferred global of 
3ffe:bc0:8000::3c6b - Freenet6 tunnel endpoint.
Interface 4 is Local Area Connection NIC to internet via cable modem, output 
does not look right though.

netstat -an shows
..
TCP: [::]:80    [::]:0         LISTENING         0
..

Dont know what else to give you guys that might help.

|I was unable to connect to the IPv6 portion of your website, though, I have 
been able to resolve your website address to:
|
| [DNS] Canonical: www.minitutorials.com Numerical: 3ffe:bc0:8000::3c6b
| [DNS] Numerical: 203.121.204.130
|
| Which means your domain points to both IPv6 and IPv4. However, you will 
need to configure your webserver for an IPv6 port. Apache 1.x requires a 
special 1.x+ipv6 version, and Apache 2 fully supports IPv6 by default. This 
will need to be done in the httpd.conf file, by the Listen block.
