I signed up, and my tunnel was approved within a half hour. I've already setup reverse DNS and the tunnel, and, 2 hours after signing up, I'm routed and operational! What's weird, is that from the he.net tunnel, I can ping6 www.kame.net, and I can ping6 my other ip6 addresse (my other tunnel). But, from my old tunnel, I cannot ping6 www.kame.net. Must be a routing issue somewhere between... Thanks for the pointer guys! Eric Crist
