Not cook islands. I am in Hawaii though so not a huge distance away. I'd got dual boot debian/windows and I had the tzlocation set wrong under Debian (GMT instead of local time). Boot back into Windows to test something and sent a few e-mails without noticing the time stamp was wrong.

Are you really on Cook Island in the Pacific or is your email headers date timezone string set incorrectly -1000. Your message won't be read by me until tonight shortly after 12:19 am. Sadly you'll miss IPv6 day :(

I've done the same at home, HE tunnel for IPv6. I've got a Linksys WRT54GL running DD-WRT so getting it set up was relatively straight forward though I really need to fix the automatic startup script that's misbehaving. Work was another matter, one big headache, to the point where I'm wondering if something is interfering. OpenBSD box running pf acts as a router for us, HE tunnel comes up easily and works fine from box. rtadvd starts advertising the network range and every machine in the office picked it up. Briefly those workstations running Windows 7 in the office were able to use the tunnel (5 mins give or take). From then on I could see outbound and inbound IPv6 traffic on the BSD box, but it never seemed to reach the workstations. Tearing down, reconfiguring, checking out every guide under the sun, nothing worked :) Gave up in the end, I'll tackle it later when I've got time to waste. Would be nice if my $isp would sort out an IPv6 address range for us to use properly.

Thanks to HE's tunnel broker service, I've got fully functional dual
stack at home (well, mostly, like most folks, VZ gives me a single
address and I live behind that with NATv4, but otherwise, I loves me
some FiOS) and yesterday went by for me without a hitch, including
accessing Facebook (I'd hear from the wife and kid really quickly if
they weren't working).  For a working tunnel, I put my DIR-825 as the
"DMZ" host behind the cheesy Actiontec router VZ requires, forward all
traffic with zero firewalling to it, and let the D-Link appliance handle
all my firewall needs (and it terminates my v6 tunnel obviously).  The
one thing I haven't quite figured out how to make it do (and maybe it's
just not capable) is use the /48 HE routes to me.  The box insists that
the internal interface be on the same subnet as the external, and it
hands out v6 addresses from that /64.

If you go to www.v6.facebook.com it works, but it seems they have some
problem on their main site.  I am seeing some issues reaching them over
IPv6.
