HE isn't dead.
It even has locations in Amsterdam. I see possibilities.
yeah but they are completely full.
You'll have to check every now and then.
It wasn't when I responded to this thread earlier.
One option is Hurricane Electric, which offers a free IPv6 tunnelbroker service with servers located in the Netherlands. Another option is Tunnelbroker.net, which also provides free IPv6 tunnel services with servers in the Netherlands.
Which one to choose between these two options then?
You're joking, right?
Get a vps with ipv6 and install openvpn
You should've asked how and where do I sign up for Hurricane Electric's IPv6 tunnel broker service
The only problem with HE's service (but it is a fairly big problem) is no transit to Cogent, which over the years more and more repositories seem to be using.. Apt doesn't like to fall back to IPv4.
Seems isolated to the tunnelbroker service, it performs semi shit but it's very free. I'm not seeing this using their transit (they're the biggest ipv6 still)
Specifically for apt u can
apt-get -o Acquire::ForceIPv4=trueor add it to/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/I do... Try
ping 2001:550:0:1000::9a19:65Not during an OS install though, otherwise neat.
Yeah, I've been using it since 2008.. Starting to turn it off on some hosts though, it is causing more issues than it fixes lately.
It is a fantastic service but you need to be aware of its limitations.
