   Hallo Michiel,   
      
    Mv> I see you use a he.net tunnel.   
    Mv> I see your IPv4 address is from DTAG. DTAG provides native IPv6 to   
    Mv> (some?) of its customers. There are two German Fidonet sysops that have   
    Mv> native IPv6 from DTAG.   
    Mv> You do not have native IPv6 from DTAG or is there another reason you use   
    Mv> a he.net tunnel?    
      
   Yep, this is my configuration :)   
      
   I chose this, as my DTAG DSL connection would indeed offer a Dual-Stack IP   
   connection, but the IPv6 prefix is not fixed and could change at any time -   
   kind of like the IPv4 address.   
   And thus I would need dynamic DNS not only for IPv4 but also for IPv6...   
   So I chose to stay with my he.net tunnel -- which also allows me to specify   
   reverse DNS servers.   
   I don't know if that is even remotely possible for a private DTAG DSL   
   connection...   
      
   Regards,   
   Anna
