Thanks for the pointer to he.net! I signed up, and my tunnel was
approved within a half hour. I've already setup reverse DNS and the
tunnel, and, 2 hours after signing up, I'm routed and operational!
What's weird, is that from the he.net tunnel, I can ping6
www.kame.net, and I can ping6 my other ip6 addresse (my other
tunnel). But, from my old tunnel, I cannot ping6 www.kame.net.
Must be a routing issue somewhere between...
Thanks for the pointer guys!
