So, I've managed to get IPv6 between nacht.local and manolo.local, although it doesn't seem to be possible to delete an IP address on the Zaurus. The migration to IPv6 was actually easier than I though, once I figured out that I needed to get addresses of site scope. It's actually much nicer than IPv4 because it's shorter (one being fec0::1 and the other fec0::2) although I'll need to change that once I get to set up the router using some sort of *nix. It'll most likely be LFS (www.linuxfromscratch.org), unless I get to grips with one of the BSDs before that, although for the bandwidth the link has, network stack performance is not really a problem. Since the AP/router/firewall is gonna be a proper PC running Linux, I've decided to do a migration in the LAN, although when I checked to see how good you can configure an IPv6 address using WinXP (Half Life 2 needs a 'net connection, and the rest of the familly will want to use it as well) and it doesn't let you configure it. At all. I checked again. Still nothing (like it was gonna have changed) would appear to let you configure it. I'm guessing that it's either creating the automatic one based on the MAC address of the interface or it's trying to use the IPv4-mmaped address (2002::a:b:c:d:1, the letters being the IPv4 address in hexadecimal notation). I don't want to use neither of them because they're ugly, long and complicated (at least I don't want to use them exclusively, but also the site link addreess) so I might have to put an IPv6 and an IPv4 address on the AP just so that Win can connect. I'll try to use IPv6-only on the computers I can, but it's not gonna be easy. I've at long last got an account with freenet6.net (they provide tunnel for using IPv6 if your ISP doesn't support it) and also looked at what the status is on IPv6 integration in Eurpe. It seems like the official IPv6-enabled web-server list is over here at the uni (6bone.informatik.uni-leipzig.de), although I think I'd feel more proud if I actually studied here. Oh well, maybe in a few years. I then wen't looking for what there was in Spain (just to see if I could get a tunnel to IPv6 closer to home) and the projects over there all seem dead. The global summit in Madrid hasn't been updated since the 2003 summit, which is a very bad sign. The official company that does IPv6 in Spain hasn't had anything updated since 2002, and some pages are stuck in 2000. Seems like I'm gonna have to use this tunnel, which probably ends somewhere in the US, even if I just wanna visit european websites (and destroys my plan to use as much european stuff as possible, like BerliOS for project hosting (rpgscript.berlios.de) (developer.berlios.de) and a possible transfer of the personal site to a german host. These guys seems to have the best 'net connections, since I can for example, download stuff much faster from german mirrors than from a uni not 2000Km from my location (when I'm in Spain), and soupoussedly being in a national network, which should be a lot faster, but I get speeds I'd be ashamed of were I uploading something from my minuscule link. I think this helps me to decide on a place for uni and possible living. While were on national disgrace, Castilla y Leon (we call them "autonomous community", but if you don't what it is, it's something more or less like a state, but they can't segregate, an belive me, some have really been trying) has singed a deal with a certain software company based in Redmond,WA, while all the other communities have started to go the open/free-source way by releasing their own distributions (Debian Sarge in Spanish with, I souposse, minimmal changes). I think that they should focus on a common distribution, but that's just me.
