ayiya 6in4 relay-program

Hi,
I couple of days ago, I bought a apple airport express for at home.
One of the features of it, is that it used as a small IPv6 router, however for me to use it, I have to problems: I do not have a fixed IP-address and my router on by VDSL-line does not pass IP protocol 41 (6in4).
So I have the following idea:
I would like to use on device on my local network (either my iomege NAS or my dreambox sat-receiver) as relays between 6in4 packets (from the airport) to a ayiya tunnel of sixxs.net.
For that, I would need to write a program on the box (in pure "userland" as these devices do not have IPv6-support in the kernel) to do this.
Has anybody already done this? Any ideas or 'bright ideas" for this?
Cheerio! Kr. Bonne.

Easier solution: configure a heartbeat proto-41 tunnel on the Airport Express. Then compile aiccu for the Dreambox or the Iomega and configure it to only send heartbeats. This assume that your airport express is doing NAT, as then the heartbeat packets in IPv4 come from the address of your Airport Express, which means the PoP will configure your side of the tunnel to be your Airport Express.
Problemo solved.

Jeroen,
A good idea. Thanks. I'll give it a try. I'll strip down the ayiyu code to the minimal to get it to compile/run on the iomega and/or dreambox more easily.
Cheerio! Kr. Bonne.
