Yes, Amazon and Microsoft don't have AAAA records for their main web sites but they do support IPv6 for their cloudy stuff (AWS and Office 365).

Yes, the IPv6 addresses are a bit flaky but were working OK earlier this afternoon.

Mind sharing your tunneling recipe? I had a tunnel set up using an aiccu client to sixxs.net for a while, but it was very unreliable. At the time I don't think there was a public aiccu server component available (and this was before bitfolk had IPv6 connectivity). Perhaps tunneling is easier now? --scott On May 16, 2013 7:04 AM, "Keith Williams" <keithwilliamsnp(a)gmail.com> wrote: > I have just spent the last few days investigating tunneling ipv6 from my > vps to my wheezy box at home and so giving my home mini-network ipv6 > access.
