Hi,
i'm using IPV6 Tunnel and Subnet without problem. My only problem is about Reverse, i insert my record as request in the Subnet configuration page, but it seem not working fine. If i try to make a reverse for my ipv6 address it doesn't work i got the following message :
Asking ns3.sixxs.net. for 2.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.5.D.1.0.8.1.4.1.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa PTR record:
ns3.sixxs.net [193.1.31.74] says to go to ipv6.boselli.eu. (zone: 5.d.1.0.8.1.4.1.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa.)
Asking ipv6.boselli.eu. for 2.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.5.D.1.0.8.1.4.1.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa PTR record: Timed out [at 0.0.0.0]. Trying again.

Hi,
The error message is pretty obvious, don't you think?
Asking ipv6.boselli.eu. for 2.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.5.D.1.0.8.1.4.1.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa PTR record: Timed out [at 0.0.0.0]. Trying again.
The SixXS nameservers refer the client to ask ipv6.boselli.eu for a reverse name
$ host ipv6.boselli.eu.
ipv6.boselli.eu has IPv6 address 2001:1418:1d5::2
No IPv4 address. Not all IPv6-enabled clients use IPv6-enabled nameservers, your host won't be resolvable from >99% of the worldwide users
$ dig -t a 2.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.5.D.1.0.8.1.4.1.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa @2001:1418:1d5::2
[...]
;; global options: printcmd
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached
and it does not even answer to nameserver queries (pings though).
Start your nameserver, add an IPv4 address/nameserver to your list and/or ask someone who knows what he is doing.
