    AR> Hi Tony,   
      
    AR> How did you configured OpenVPN for IPv6? Can you share some info?   
      
   Here's an abridged version of my config. :)   
      
   writepid /var/run/openvpn-vk3jed.pid   
   remote 1234:dead:beef:4e00:5054:ff13:fe31:99b3 # I've used a bogus address   
   proto udp6  # UDP tunnel over IPv6   
   verb 5   
   comp-lzo   
   float   
   dev tun0   
   link-mtu 1440    #<==== link-mtu and mssfix may not be required!   
   #mssfix 1000   
   secret keys/vk3jed.key   
   ifconfig  202.12.89.161 192.168.200.11   
   port 5678   
   ping 20   
   ping-restart 120   
   script-security 3   
   up /etc/openvpn/apanasa.up   
      
      
   The main things to do are to specify an endpoint that is reachable via and   
   listening on IPv6 (domain name with AAAA record or literal IPv6 address), and   
   to specify the protocol as udp6 or tcp6 (whatever the server is expecting).    
   The rest of my configuration is basically the same as my old VPN over IPv4.
