This will load the appropriate kernel modules (most importantly ipv6.ko), and setup the appropriate key(s) using gconftool.

I was all set to build my own custom kernel (or at least kernel module), and low an behold, Nokia made it very easy for me.

Also, take a look at /etc/init.d/osso-ipv6

Run the following command(s) to check your ipv6 config:

Show your IPv6 addresses (ifconfig is part of busybox, not IPv6 enabled in Diablo):
Code:
ip -f inet6 addr show
Show your IPv6 Neighbors (should show router if IPv6 RA is setup):
Code:
ip -f inet6 neigh show
Show your IPv6 routing table:
Code:
ip -f inet6 route show
Show your IPv6 kernel parameters:
Code:
sysctl -a |grep ipv6
This is working for me without any major issues. I had already set the browser to enable IPv6 using the "about:config" mozilla trick, and set network.dns.disableIPv6 (bool) to false. (It defaulted to true)

They have not updated the howto for Diablo yet, but there is still very useful information.

Those that have used IPv6 will know what I mean.

I have been successful getting the web browser, and ssh to both use IPv6, and sshd will use it once it has been restarted (kill -sighup pid will do the trick). I am assuming that there is an /etc/init.d load order issue that causes sshd to load before the osso-ipv6 script loads. I'm sure that once I have had some sleep that it will come to me
