Aiccu and SixXs are Ying & Yang...

Yes, Aiccu is running (the Windows version)

technically I have a dynamic IPv4 address. In practise it is quasi static, it has not changeds in over a year. My he.net tunnel is configured as static 6in4. My SixXs tunnel is AYIYA dynamic.

AYIYA does not use protocol 41, so firewall settings are irrelevant. AYIYA is supposed to punch through anything and it has been doing that ffor over a year. The problem arose on Jan 3rd, without any changes on my side.

I restarde aiccu. No change. I restarted the whol e machine. No change.

 MvdV>> Jeroen Massar is his usual helpful self.  NOT  :-(

 BP> maybe he have a life aswell ? :=)

Fair enough. And I realise that SixXs is run by volunteers. No excuse for arrogance and rudeness though...

 MvdV>> I have just about had it with SixXs.
 MvdV>> Oh, well, my he.net tunnel (wrt6.vlist.eu) is doing fine. ;-)

 BP> have it nearly run now, but first new kernel, hehe :)

How about routing the subnet?


Cheers, Michiel
