Can't get ipv6 connectivity outside LAN

Hi there,
a new arch system has been set up by me and now I try to get IPv6 working. Sixxs is my tunnel provider and it did work on my previous (Ubuntu 10.04) system. So in general it should be possible :-). I installed the aiccu package from the AUR and if I do "aiccu start" it gets all the correct tunnel data. Testing things with "aiccu test" shows that everything, but outbound connections, works. I can ping myself, but test 6 (Ping the IPv6 Remote/PoP Inner Tunnel Endpoint), 7 (Traceroute6 to the central SixXS machine) and 8 (Traceroute6 to (www.kame.net)) fail. Test 6 gives the following hint:
### If the previous test was succesful then this could be both
### a firewalling and a routing/interface problem
It seems that the sixxs interface is configured correctlyt, ifconfig shows (the *'s are replacements by me):
sixxs Link encap:UNSPEC HWaddr C0-A8-02-56-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00
inet6 addr: fe80::c0a8:256/64 Scope:Link
inet6 addr: 2001:6f8:***:***::2/64 Scope:Global

TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)
Unfortunately, there is not much experience with ip tables, but this is the output from "route":
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
192.168.2.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
default arcor.easybox 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
And this is the output from "ip -f inet6 route show":
2001:6f8:***:***::/64 via :: dev sixxs proto kernel metric 256 mtu 1280 advmss 1220 hoplimit 0
fe80::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256 mtu 1500 advmss 1440 hoplimit 0

default via 2001:6f8:***:***::1 dev sixxs metric 1024 mtu 1280 advmss 1220 hoplimit 0
The configuration from /etc/aiccu.conf is tha following:
username ****
password ****
protocol tic
server tic.sixxs.net
ipv6_interface sixxs
tunnel_id ****
verbose true
daemonize true
automatic true
requiretls false
pidfile /var/run/aiccu.pid
defaultroute true
makebeats true
behindnat true
I am behind a NAT which connects me to the internet. Do you have any hints where to look else? Should it work by default or am I missing some settings?
Furthermore I need to use the teredo protocol with meredo, but this is likely another issue (as running meredo does not affect the general ipv6 situation with aiccu for me).
Edit: After executing
ip route add ::/0 dev sixxs
I could get sometimes a connection. For a ping6 the best was about 50% package loss. I found this on the wiki pake for manual 6in4 tunnels. So it seems that it actually has something to do with routing and which routes are created by the aiccu -- so this is not yet resolved.
Thanks in advance, regards,
Tom

Thanks for posting your conig, smayer. Unfortunately I got the same result as before
--- 2001:6f8:***:***::1 ping statistics ---
3 packets transmitted, 1 received, 66% packet loss, time 2008ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 29.139/29.139/29.139/0.000 ms
Some packet get through -- strange. My router is probably alright, since it did work on Ubuntu two weeks ago.
I tried the same config with an ArchLinux on my notebook. It is connected via wlan to the same router. There happens exactly the same -- packet loss. Well, either my router is not working correcly for about two weeks now or my arch setups have both some problems. I'll try this on another machine.
Edit: I tried it on another machine in this LAN -- Ubuntu 10.10. The same result there -- so it is probably not arch or my configuration. I'll exchange the router and see what happens.
Edit: It seems to work now. After I have disable intrusion detection and firewalls on my router (I'll fine tune that) the packet loss is gone. So sorry for the spam here :-)

Imac i5 late 2009 running OS X 10.8.4 and can't get FireWire connection to work

I have Imac i5 late 2009 running OS X 10.8.4 and can't get FireWire connection to work with LaCie external drive. I have gone through older posts and tried with no luck power cable and holding down start button for 15 seconds and restoring power and also removing power cable waitng 10 minutes replugging power cable holding down alt command P, R keys until second beep is heard. I know that LaCie drive and cable are working, they were connnected to another iMac without issues. What options do I have left to get FireWire to work? The System Report just says
FireWire Bus:
Maximum Speed: Up to 800 Mb/sec.
Thanks for any help
CS

I did not mention in original post that when initially connected to the Firewire port the LaCie drive I can hear activity so the drive is getting power. Does this mean the Firewire port may not be physically damamged and there may be options for resetting? Are there any 3rd party software repair programs worth buying for diagnostics and repair of the FireWire port?

Unable to install the latest update, can't get past 'connecting to server'. Have let it run as long as 10 mins. but still says 'connecting to server'; any ideas?

I can't get a picture outside on my new ipad. Anyone else with this problem? What should I do?

You're post is not very clear. Are you asking if other people have difficulty viewing their iPads in bright sunlight? Yes, everyone does. The type of screen the iPad has doesn't work well in bright sunlight. If you're wearing polarized sunglasses and can't see anything on the screen, try rotating it to landscape.
If you're asking something else, please explain.

Can not get mail, connection to the server failed

have been recieving/using work emails and calender via exchange for years but as of this week i have lost access all i keep getting is 'can not get mail, connection to server failed. i have change password but still not working any advise PLEASE..

Hmmm. I've seen that message before, I usually just continue with the account and save it, then power off /on the phone. It usually works after that.
Has anything change with your account?

I can't get the connect to work after base installion.

Hello, everyone, I am new to Arch Linux.
I follow the installation guide install Arch Linux, Everything run pretty smooth, except at the part when I need to choose the package, I am not so sure what I am doing. So I choose everything except for the thing that I am sure I would never need.
When the installation is complete, I try to go to the next setup which update my system, but some how, I can't get the connection working, switch mean, I couldn't do anything beyond that. (both wireless and wired network, BTW I am using DSL and I do try the adsl thing)
Every thing seem make sense to me during the installation, but I just can't get the network connection working.
BTW: my laptop is a Toshiba portege M100.
Any idea?
Thanks

Try typing in:
dhcpcd eth0 (or whatever interface you are using)
and hit enter, I had the same type of problem and this woke up my network connection.
Edit: Also, once you gain your connection up and running, you might want to install ifplugd. It is a daemon which will automatically configure your Ethernet device when a cable is plugged in and automatically unconfigure it if the cable is pulled, which is good for laptops. Once installed make sure you put it in /etc/rc.conf under the DAEMONS section.
Here is some info in the wiki http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Configuring_network

No need to keep posting the same very vague statement.
Why don't you explain what you are talking about and ask whatever question you have?

Can't get ipv6 address assigned correctly.

I use NetworkManager and dhclient for auto-configuration but it has some weird problems.
When I boot up my laptop, I only have chance to get access to ipv6 network, when I fail, I tried to delete the connection in Network Management Settings, and then added a new profile, disable and then enable the network again. Sometimes it works well, but sometimes it failed to auto-config.
If I use the command:
$ ip -6 rout
then I'll get the following message:
unreachable fe80::/64 dev lo proto kernel metric 256 error -101
fe80::/64 dev wlan0 proto kernel metric 256
default via fe80::2e0:2ff:fe54:59 dev wlan0 proto static metric 1
every time the default gateway is configured well, sometimes the address the address is missed , and if I do the following:
$ ping6 -I wlan0 -c 4 fe80::2e0:2ff:fe54:59
It responses normally.
PING fe80::2e0:2ff:fe54:59(fe80::2e0:2ff:fe54:59) from fe80::1034:56ff:fe78:9124 wlan0: 56 data bytes

I found I just sometimes can get the ipv6 address start with 2001:
If the address is assigned, then:
$ ping6 ipv6.google.com
PING ipv6.google.com(ipv6.google.com) 56 data bytes
^C
--- ipv6.google.com ping statistics ---
11 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 10008ms
response nothing!
Then I switch into Windows 7, if something like above happened, then I managed to set the MAC address to a random value such as 12-34-56-78-91-23, soon, the problem will be corrected, I'll get a new ipv6 address assigned by DHCPv6 server. If I switch back to arch, set the MAC address in NetworkManager, it didn't have function at most time, and the ipv6 address even won't change!
Can anyone help me with this problem?
by the way, I never get ipv6 address when I use dhcpcd.

Just in case you are wondering where your post has been gone: The moderators board received this message from you:
I dont need tunnel to access to ipv6, My univ use dual-stack to get both ipv4 and v6 work around all campus.
This is because you inadvertently used the "Report" link. But don't worry this happens rather often.

Can't get internet connection via ethernet

I have had 3 computers, 1 pc and 2 Macs, networked through ethernet for two years. Never had problems until yesterday. We just can't get on the internet on the Macs. Both macs say "Your computer isn't connected." Talked to D-Link router, everything was fine. Macs recognize IP and all numbers, so they told us to call Apple. Any ideas?
Thanks.

Possibly:
reboot the macs.
check the cables.
reboot the router.
reboot the dsl/cable/whatever modem.
Are you getting a valid Ip ddress from the D-Link (192.168.xx.xx, or is it a 169.xxx.xxx.xxx?)
In Network utilities, can you ping an outside IP by name? Ping an outside site by IP by number? Ping the router IP? Ping the PC?

Can't get wireless connection to Gateway laptop

My wife has a school-district issued Gateway laptop- state of the art. We can't get connected to the internet at home using our new airport express. The imac gets on fine, and the gateway gets on if we simply plug the modem into the computer, but nothing wirelessly. It's works for her at her job, it works in coffee shops. Her tech person told her it's equiped to work at home with adding any software, but we get nothing. Something we're supposed to tweak?

Have done all the trouble shooting connection but my iPad still can not get wifi connection

i have done all the trouble shooting connection but mu iPAd still can not get wifi connection

Hi Jo,
Each router is a little different but here are the basics: login to the router using the administrator account, should have that info from the installer, and then you should find something like security settings, or it may be advanced security. There will be a setting to the effect of limiting access, or it may say allow Mac address authentication, or admit the Mac addresses in the table...if that is switched on, you can just switch it off and that will allow any wireless device to attach. If you want to keep it on, then you have to enter the Mac address for the device you want to use for access. In the case of the iPad, go to Settings > General > About > WiFi Address (another way of saying Mac address). Enter that very long sequence in the router's Mac address acceptance table and that should take care of things.
Using the Mac address does not change any of the email settings, just limits attaching to the router in the first place.
If you are already getting email, you must be attaching already so this should not be an issue. If you are having email issues, such as receive but not send, you may not have the outgoing server set correctly: Settings > Mail > Account > Outgoing server name (usually an SMTP server) and you may have to go to the advanced settings to enter the outgoing password (normally the same as the account/incoming password) and then check to see if SSL is ON or OFF...most common email services say to set to OFF.

BroadXent DSL Router to older AEBS - can't get multiple connections

Router is "auto detection" half or full bridge mode, direct ethernet cable to older "mushroom" AEBS. For some reason, can only get one wireless connection at a time. Have to shut down connected machine before can get connection to another. Not unusual that I have to cycle power on modem and AEBS to get new connection. This is a recent problem. I had a LinkSys BRFSR81 router (which died today) between the modem and AEBS and had no problem w/multiple wireless machines at the same time. Likewise, tried to temporarily use a Netgear 4 port switch in place of the linksys router, and can only get one hardwired internet connection at a time. (Modem=> LinkSys 8 port, 5 ports ethernet to various macines, one port to AEBS to 4-5 laptops - worked out well, everyone got connectivity) What am I missing? Help please!! - family is all over me about no connectivity!

Mission accomplished.
I used the instructions in the last post of this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11085975&#11085975
BUT, I set the AEBS to PPPoe rather than DHCP.
Rebooted the Westell, powered up the AEBS...Good to Go!

Can't get db connected PHP pages to work

I have a few sites that are PHP and MySQL. Some of the pages are simply static content, but have the suffix of PHP, so don't need to call content from a database. Other pages that have database served content are not displaying, and also, I am not getting any error messages to help.
Ordianrliy, I develop with ASP, so I have used the IIS-AID installer which installs PHP inside the IIS rather than under apache. I did have my PC set up in the same way previously, but unfortunately, my disk died and I have had to start from scratch and now can't get DB content pages to display.
I have ran the <?php phpinfo(); ?> and I am getting the php details page as proof that php is working.
I have the Server name, DB names, username and password correct in the connections file.
I have just tried double clicking the database in the DW Databases panel and tested the connection there, and I got this message:
"Your PHP server doesn't have the MySQL module loaded or you can't use the mysql_(p)connect functions."
I have no idea what that means, so would appreciate your advice on this.

Probably MySQL is not installed?
Found this installation guide on IIS-AID website, might be helpful:
