i did it
already did the setup
able to ping but unable to connect via ssh/putty
ssh -6 'your ip'
no success
Use another ipv6 enabled vps?
Try to use SSH via Cygwin.
On linux you can use hosts to setup a tempo domain for this IPv6 and use SSH -6 hostname.
This
Hmm, do you have the IP on the VPS side? What OS are you using?
this is actually a dedi i am using
got a few ipv4
got the HE tunnel working
1 thing i just noticed, when i shutdown iptables, it connect to the ipv6
may be i will have to look into why port 41 is being blocked...
i am using centos though
6.4 64 bit
Hmm, thats right. If you stop iptables and the port is working then you have to open the port through iptables.
Oh, ok. then you have to open port 41. Because on CentOS, all incoming ports are closed by default.

Edit iptables config file:
sudo nano /etc/sysconfig/iptables
Add this into it before COMMIT line:
-A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 41 -j ACCEPT
Save it (CTRL+O --> Enter --> Ctrl+X Enter), and restart iptables with the following command:
sudo service iptables restart
And 1 more recommendation, if you decide to move some of your service ports away from the original place try to address it in these ranges 49152–65535. Because you can be sure that these ports are never used by standard applications or services.
You have to open protocol 41, not port 41 with iptables (not ip6tables)
-A INPUT -p 41 -j ACCEPT
-A OUTPUT -p 41 -j ACCEPT
thanks every body
iptables -A INPUT -p 41 -j ACCEPT worked
