Greetins :) no I do not need a direct assistance, I just need a hint about this transfer from IPv6 network to IPv4 network....and I placed my question on this mailing list ( I am reading it very often ) because I think this is place where are a lot of people network proffesionals. In network I have only unix/linux ( debian/openbsd ) and all works ok, and IPv6 is supported by all. Setting ipv6 address to host is not such a big problem, and just want to make clear, how to connect from ipv6 client thru ipv6/ipv4 gateway to internet....
