Hi Ronald, You didn't mention it in your message, but i assume you probably allready have done it... One of the things you should do, is to have radvd configured and running. Other thing is that you have to populate dns and reversed-dns with your ipv6 addresss, Otherwise, you can go out on the "wider" net, but no-one can find you: remembering an ipv4 address is hard enough, correctly remembering ipv6 (from the top of your head) is a mission impossible. So DNS is absolutely essential, for incoming traffic, that is.... For outgoing traffic, if an url has both an v4 and v6 address, i found that ssh favours ipv6. Looks the same for http and ftp. For rsync you can (but don't have to) specify a -4 or an -6 option. IPv6 for voip (asterisk) is still experimental, and ktorrent seems to be repaired in kde4. For the systems behind the nat-firewall, I found that most of my systems got an v6 address automagically (both those with fixed v4 address and those with an bootp address)...
