Tunnel problem on Vista

I'm having trouble setting up the tunnel on Windows Vista... After I install OpenVPN and run SixXS the new interface that was created by OpenVPN is trying to Identify, but all I get is a Local connection, with IP that is not my tunnels IP.
When trying to enter IP manually it works, but I don't know any DNS servers, so I could use the tunnel...
any hints? :)

Ok I somehow fixed this by setting up my own DNS server...
So now I can ping -6 www.kame.net and it pings true IPv6 tunnel...
but the problem I'm still having is if I go to www.kame.net using firefox or explorer, i get connected true IPv4...
Any ideas on that?

in thunderbird make sure the option "network.dns.disableIPv6" is set to false! you can do this by entering "about:config" (without the " ) in the navigation bar. enter ipv6 as filter to see this entry.

I have it on false ;)
the problem is not only firefox/thunderbird related...
anywhere in windows I try to use ipv6 it doesn't...
I allso found out that domain names that only have AAAA records aren't accessible, but if I ping -6 w6.kame.net it will ping, if i try to open it in browser it fails....

I have the same problem on XP SP-2 with an AYIYA tunnel. When I start aiccu and the Virtual Interface TUN Adapter (openvpn) start, I can't use any browser or other application. The applications starts only if I can use the IP address, but not when I use the hostname(including ping and tracert). IMHO it's a DNS resolve problem.

I solved it by adding dns server from my ISP (ipv4) into OpenVPN's settings in ipv4....
or simply in command line:
netsh interface ipv4 add dnsserver name="<Virtual Interface name>" <ipv4 address of your dns server>
