I'm using Ubuntu Linux as my operating system.In my network only the ipv4 is suported, and I need to access some website through ipv6. How can I do it, is there a way to tunnel from the ipv4 to ipv6.

messages appear in syslog each day. Each URL has from 2 - 6 attempts at various ipv6 addresses. My question is why is bind9 trying to resolve ipv6 addresses? I have done nothing to enable or disable ipv6 and thought that if not explicitly enabled I would not have to be concerned with it.
I've got a Ubuntu Linux box that has two IPv4 addresses and an IPv6 address. This is my current /etc/network/interfaces:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0 eth0:0

I'm working in windows, and that's why I have been able to access the network. In F14, I was able to access the router address while the internet access ain't. Tried restarting network, and still the problem persists. Tried [URL] and the only thing that i've infered is that IPv4 Failed: FATAL plus, the routing table showed 0.0.0.0 as one of the entries (Gateway). So, i've deleted the wired network configuration from the Network Configuration and checked whether the os would pick it up automatically. It still didn't work.

The VPN works perfectly but I have a security concern. In order to allow the VPN clients to connect to the internet, I had to enable IPv4 forwarding on the server. Is this is a security hole? Can a hacker access my servers connection from the internet (without authenticating with OpenVPN) and access my network. Can someone use Ipv4 forwarding to access my LAN network from the WAN
I used this command to enable ipv4 forwarding
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
Without IPv4 forwarding my VPN clients can only access my LAN and router, but they cannot reach my modem or the internet.

I installed 11.3amd64 as a VM under Vista/VMWare Player - all worked fine. I have now installed it as a physical system. It nstalled cleanly BUT during first boot it could not access the repos. With each repo it gave the message
- download (curl) error for (repo)
- error code connection failed
- error message could not resolve host (repo)
This was followed by a message box containing
- UI syntax error
- no widget with ID 'contents
Firefox could not access the internet (cannot find server) until I disabled IPV6 (I used about:config), now it works fine. I think the repos problem is because of IPV6 - I usually have trouble with IPV6. I tried disabling IPV6 with the following (How To Disable ipv6 on SuSE Linux | Linux Poison)

setting up NAT and firewalling for both IPv4 and IPv6. The machine is headless, so everything must be configured via CLI. I've done all IPv4 firewall configuration writing iptables rules in a bash script so far
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm running a native dual-stack (ipv4 & ipv6) dsl connection.So, I've been adding firewall rules, cleaning up unwanted processes, etc to tighten security.I'm left with only 3 processes that are listening to ports. mysql, ipp & ssh.Still not quite sure I need mysql. I run Amarok but without using a database, so I don't actually use sql for anything that I'm aware of.Anyway, my question is;Is it possible to make any any of these processes listen to ipv4 only or ipv6 only? Is there a distinction there at all?
Example- ssh is currently listening to port 22 on both tcp & tcp6. I do all my ssh connections using 'ssh -6', so, Can I make ssh listen to tcp6 only, or ignore tcp ?
On my 10.04 LTS Ubuntu Server installation, apache2 doesn't bind to ipv4. It does bind to ipv6. I didn't notice this at first, because from my home connection I could visit the webpages without trouble. I noticed it running netstats -ta:
Code:
tcp 0 0 localhost:10024 *:* LISTEN
tcp 0 0 localhost:10025 *:* LISTEN
tcp 0 0 localhost:mysql *:* LISTEN

View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to modify apache IPv4 configuration to IPv6 configOn both windows and ubuntu.
View 1 Replies View RelatedQuestion (and Google results aren't making this clear): Ubuntu has both iptables & ip6tables installed. 1. If I set a rule in iptables, does that rule also apply to ipv6, or just ipv4?
2. If "no" to above, then it would be prudent to *also* set ip6tables rules as well if I want to maintain an active firewall, correct?
3. Does ip6tables rules have the same syntax and behavior (more or less) to iptables rules - i.e. can I just copy my iptables rules & change "iptables" to "ip6tables"?
4. Any gotchas or issues that I should be aware of?
I have just installed Kubuntu 9.4 and my wifi will not work. dmesg tell me it is looking for IPv6 and my router does not support it.
how I can tell the OS to ignore IPv6 and use IPv4?
I have read writing alias net-pf-10 off; and alias ipv6 off in /etc/modprobe.d/alias is supposed to work but Kubuntu 9.4 does not have an alias file in modprobe.d

Disabling IPv4 packet forwarding but i already changed it to 1 at sysctl.conf One of the online forum says i need to configure the named.conf deleted some and run it(named.conf) and successful but still when I run network service I still get the :"Disabling IPv4 packet forwarding: net.ipv4.ip_forward = 0" The network is getting the IP range but it doesnt get any Internet connection.
i'm using fedora 9 and mozilla 3 with dsl internet connection. i can't access some site in my computer but other computers can using internet explorer. i hope this is the right forum for this.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI've had a hell of a time with this and now all but YAST2 are ok. Going back some time to 10.0 this could be used to disable it very completely.
open terminal and run
echo "alias net-pf-10 off" >> /etc/modprobe.conf
echo "alias ipv6 off" >> /etc/modprobe.conf
restart computer. Has anyone used this on more recent issues even 11.4 and are there any repercussions?I assume that the inverse will but it back on ie off's just become on's? I will be using cups when I install my printer which is one concern and I am not at all sure that modprobe will do anything anymore?
I also recollect that there is a command to cause the kernel to effectively reboot which would save restarting. Can't remember what it is. Maybe some one can refresh my memory.
I just bought the Barnes & Noble Nook eReader for my wife's birthday and a requirement is to log on to the Nook website and establish an account. Using her Fedora 13 64bit desktop and Firefox she repeatedly tried to access the website www.nook.com to create an account, however consistently got the server not found message. Even using the Firefox addon User Agent Switcher and turning off NoScript did not correct this.
When we switched over to the WinXP install and Firefox we were able to access the website no problem. Anyone else unable to access that website via linux?
I have web server apache on linux Centos. I can access it successfully by typing on the address bar http://localhost, 127.0.0.1 or 192.168.0.150 from the local computer server and the site loads normally with graphic. When I access the site from another computer in the same local network, I don't get the correct website. I see the site like html as text not graphic. Please see below text file output from the browser: Also I can only access the site by typing 192.168.0.150 IP address in the address bar. When I type http://localhost or 127.0.0.1, the site does not come up. Do you see what I did wrong? How can I fix this problem.

I had some fun here, with my local Cyrus IMAP daemon. I "updated" the machine to openSuse11.4 (from 11.2) by doing a fresh install. Because some of my involved HW here isn't capable of IPv6, I switched it off using yast2:
Netzwerkgeräte/Netzwerkeinstellungen [my translation: Network devices / Network Settings] Globale Optionen [global options] Removed the mark on "IPv6 aktivieren" [activate IPv6]
Then I had a hard fight with Cyrus IMAPd, mostly caused by user brain damage on my part... But one thing really looks like a problem on the Suse side of the fence: My /etc/hosts missed the "localhost"-entry for IPv4 ! This was the contents:
Code:
# special IPv6 addresses
::1 localhost ipv6-localhost ipv6-loopback
127.0.0.2 godot.site godot
[Code].....
I haven't seen this effect on 11.2 here and I haven't seen it on "my other" machine (running 64 bit version of Suse 11.4). But there I think IPv6 is still activated. I will check this, as soon as I get there.
Should this be reported as a potential bug in 11.4 ? Or is there some way, I could have messed up this. (No I didn't edit /etc/hosts by hand, before I corrected this thing)
I am new to ubuntu,or linux and i used to access ipv6 sites in my Win7 .

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been struggling to get FC15 to act as an IPv6 router for a while now, am sure I am missing something trivial.. The idea is that I have a ppp / adsl connection (this works fine), use the wireless card on my pc with hostapd and dhcpd to provide connections to other pcs (works fine), and radvd to delegate ipv6 addresses.
The issue seem to be that as soon as I turn on ipv6 forwarding (net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding =1), the ppp connection no longer gets an IPv6 address. This means the router cannot ping any ipv6 address outside my network.
If I disable ipv6 routing, my router gets an IPv6 address on its ppp connection, and can ping things such as ipv6.google.com just fine, however (of course) no packets are forwarded from my network and radvd complains that forwarding is disabled.
I decided to enable dual stack on my home 11.3 machine and play with IPv6. I use ifup to assign static addresses to eth0. FYI here are some things I found:
1. YaST doesn't seem to support associating IPv6 addresses to interfaces, it complains that the address is invalid. However you can edit /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0 manually and specify it like this:
Code:
LABEL_0='V6'
IPADDR_0='FEC::10.1.1.1/64'
SCOPE_0='site'
and when you restart the networking you will see an additional IPv6 address associated with eth0. Fortunately YaST doesn't mangle the entry when you look at it, but you can't edit it.
2. The SCOPE qualifier is documented in /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg.template, but seems to have no effect. Site local addresses in IPv6 are supposed to start with FE[CDEF] according to this:
The TCP/IP Guide - IPv6 Special Addresses: Reserved, Private (Link-Local / Site-Local), Unspecified and Loopback
Once bound, you can connect to services using the IPv6 address just like normal. You have to use ping6 instead of ping though.
I added an AAAA record to my nameserver and that seems to work. Whether the client software tries the IPv6 address varies. It depends on whether the software asks for the AAAA record and uses it. It seems my web browsers don't. I'm not surprised, since few people have IPv6 tails from their ISP. I'm going to look and see if there is some browser setting I have to adjust. I also have to figure out a way of making sure that only LAN destinations use IPv6.
does opensuse 11.2 come with IPv6 enabled by default? where in the gnome gui can i access these settings?
Edit-i went into the gnome network manager applet and i cant find any IPv6 settings for any of my used connections-ethernet, wireless and VPN connections all seem to only IPv4. Can anyone else confirm that opensuse 11.2 uses only IPv4 on its network connections?
I am running suse11.3 32 bit, and have installed squid3.
As far as I can tell it's not been compiled with ipv6 support.
Or have I missed some option in some file somewhere?
