Hey hey,
Finaly I moved to woody without any troubles, and I am very happy
now with the result ;-)
For ipv6 stuff, no problems anymore everything is normal right now.
The only trouble I had yesturday was that I was unable to ping6
the other part of my 6bone tunel ;-).
It was quite late so I am going to check for routes today to paliate
to that problem.
Also for running the ipv6 bind, is the bind 8.3.X with the woody
compatible or shall I move to bind 9 directly ?
Thanks for your help.
