Oh, and be sure to call up your ISP and ask them how to enable IP6.
They probably will not have heard of it. Be friendly and polite, but
totally aghast and surprised that they don't support it. The more
customer that do this, the sooner they might get a clue.
If you have AT&T, they support IP6 (except for rDNS) via 6RDP if you
have a public IP4 with them. I can give pointers for setting that up on
a linux router/desktop/server. (It's very similar to using 6in4 with
he.net, but your IP6 net is tied to your IP4.)
