AYIYA? WIN XP OK, LINUX KO.

Hi everyboy, at home i have this scenario: dynamic ip adsl, 1 Cisco 827 router, ipv6 capable, natting the internal lan. 1 notebook win Xp s.p. 2 1 desktop pc Fedora Core 6. No particular access-lists are applied (beside the security ones) on the router side. But, just to be sure, i removed all access-lists before i run all the tests. The notebook (win xp) works just fine, layer 3 ok, ping, traceroute ok. up to layer 7 everything works ok: irc, audio streaming, telnet, ftp, mail , web browsing (altough the only ipv6 capable browser seems to be Opera - IE and firefox just sit there without reaching the ipv6 web server or when this happens it's only trhough ipv4). The problem is with the linux pc, launching the aiccu daemon (after stopping it on the win notebook of course) everything seems to be ok, no error messages. layer 3 ok! i can ping, i can trace. no problem. I can also successfully ping6 the hostnames e.g. www.kame.net, so my provider's dns is ipv6 compliant. Routing table ok, the pc has its default route via sixxs interface. Seems it can reach any public ipv6 in the world. But that's the only thing i can do. If i launch "opera -debugdns" i can see that the hostnames are resolved fine to their corresponding ipv6, but no browsing, no ircing, no audio streaming and so on, nothing! I tried to reload everything, router , pc, notebook. Starting the daemon on the linux pc first, with the same exact result. Stopping it and then launching it on the win xp notebook everything works ok. Did anybody have the same problem? or some hints? Any help would be very appreciated, thanks in advance. Hope i made myself clear enough, bye! Stefano

I'm using aiccu on Fedora Core 6 with no problem. The only thing I can suggest is: make sure you have in /etc/sysconfig/network:
NETWORKING=yes NETWORKING_IPV6=yes
Then restart the network and aiccu.

Check the "Reporting Problems" section of the contact page, it gives a very nice detailed list of what you can try to do to figure out what step is actually going well. Having a default route over an interface doesn't say anything, especially when there is a more specific for the destination or when the source address is invalid, or the connectivity in general is not working. Other words: provide more details, then we here might be able to help you out.

ok, found out what the problem was. ip6tables. enabled at startup by default. didn't noticed it. i just stopped the service and all of a sudden i got into the magic world of ipv6 with my linux box. now i have to figure out why every outgoing requests were rejected beside layer 3 ones and how to properly configure the fw. thanks anyway for your answers.

I am rather confused. If you have a IPv6 capable router then why not let it setup the tunnel and request a subnet for your network? That way you can have full IPv6 connectivity.
