>Description:
With my HE tunnel, I can access most of the FreeBSD sites via IPv6, but the forums are consistently unreachabe.

A trace from my system:
cracked# traceroute6 forums.freebsd.org
traceroute6 to forums.freebsd.org (2001:4f8:3:36::209) from 2001:470:c:684::2, 64 hops max, 12 byte packets

>How-To-Repeat:
Get an HE tunnel, try to use forums.freebsd.org
>Fix:
Simplest solution would likely to be removing the AAAA record... fixing the root problem also an option.  :-)
