Ubuntu Networking :: How Can I Share Ipv6 Connection To Home Network
Jul 25, 2010
I'm using Internet connection through local network, receiving white (global) IP, route, DNS with local DHCP server. Lately I noticed that my Ubuntu gets ipv6 autoconfiguration from ISP router, receiving global ipv6 address and automatically adding ipv6 route. I can access Internet resources using ipv6 connection:
I can ping inet resources using my ipv6 global address and access, for example, ipv6.google.com or URL..
How can I share ipv6 connection to my home network? Using ipv4 it's easy, I just can use NAT for this. But if I understand correctly, in ipv6 there isn't such thing as NAT, because there is no limit in ip addresses.

I have a small wireless network running IPv6 connected though a 802.15.4 usb stick, and a network connection through eth1. I can access the nodes on the wireless network from my computer, but not from any other on the wired LAN. Also the nodes on the wireless cannot see even the address of eth1. I'm guessing i have to forward all packets from the wireless to eth1 in some way, but am unable to find an guides for this with IPv6.

I am wondering how I can share connection with my IPv6 connection.
I am using slackware and ip6tables so far. But the problem is that IPv6 or ip6tables has no "-t nat", so how could I just simply share Internet with the computers behind the firewall?

I just switched over to ubuntu 10.04 LTS Netbook Edition from Windows XP and I am wondering how to setup a home network and share files with other computers in my house? I tried going to Preferences -> Personal File Sharing. But the options for 'Share Files over the Network' is grayed out. The message is "This feature cannot be enabled because the required packages are not installed on your system."

Is there a way/program currently that allows one to share torrents / p2p files over lan or home network?

I've used Samba for several years and when it works it's great. Unfortunately from time to time it seems to get messed up and either all the 7 machines on my home network can't be seen or I can't access the shares on some. I have 2 Windows XP computers 4 Kubuntu and one Linux Mint KDE, all the latest versions. I'd rather not plough through all the documentation for Samba, but would really like a "model" smb.conf with a few comments about parts that might have legitimate variants. I have researched this with Google searches many times but have failed to find the information I need in concise form.

I seem to be having quite a big problem with Internet sharing. After doing a clean install of Lucid, I tried to set up a shared connection between my computer and my Roku set-top box. I have noticed that I am only able to set up a connection profile in Network Connections under the Ethernet card with the active Internet connection. That is, whenever I try to set up a connection, I am not given the option of using the second Ethernet card. Thus I can't share the network connection. Can someone PLEASE help me? The IRC has been completely useless.

I am new to Ubuntu, and I have just installed version 9.10 on my desktop PC. I need to connect my computer to my home network. Right now, I have no connection and cannot detect any of the hardware when running Ubuntu. When I switch over to my Windows XP partition, everything works fine.

I am a big ubuntu fan (9.04) installed,everything went well, installed my network card(s) & the onboard without no problems/installation disc.I have 2 Network interface(s) that I used on windows xP to 'bridge' my connection, because I only have one slot on my router, and the last slot runs into my computer room and from the PC, I run it to the xbox/ps3.No matter what I do, I cannot get ubuntu to share connection
to my other network interface.

I'm trying to set up a wireless or wired network (wireless would be better...) to share my connection with my housemate, as well as with some devices. The only guide I found regarding this (I must admit, I didn't have much time to put into research), was dating back to 2005, and although doable, seemed somewhat confusing. Getting to the point: is there a way (maybe a standalone program, or some kind of plugin) to share a connection?

I'm having a little problem here. That, or I'm missing the obvious staring me in the face. I have this file server, called toad. I nuked it's system disk, reorganising the partitions and upgrading to openSUSE 11.3 x64. I installed vsftd with "Yast FTP server", and the config looks OK. I even compared it with that of another machine. But when I try to connect, this is what I get:
user@mainmachine:~> ftp
ftp> open toad
Connected to toad.geuens.org.
500 OOPS: could not bind listening IPv6 socket
I'm prettige sure IPv6 is deactivated. The firewall is disabled on both machines. I've looked this over again and again. Can't find it. It's not the connecting machine, I've tried from another.

I currently have a home server, running Gentoo, with IPv4 connectivity through Qwest.I feel that it is important that this server also be available through IPv6 (I'm aware that, after exhaustion, my end still might not get an address through DHCP).I currently use dyndns.org to provide me with a DNS entry mapping jrvanwhy.homelinux.net to my IPv4 address.I do not have any sort of tunnel set up yet for IPv6 traffic yet. The new domain name does not necessarily have to be the same [URL].I do not wish to spend any money on this.Is there some free service I can register for that would do both the tunneling and the DNS entry? Is there a service that can supply me with an IPv6 DNS entry, if I get a static IPv6 address with another tunnel broker, like Hurricane Electric?

For the few thousands of people who have a little too much time on their hands who create personal web servers and host them using their local ISP on dynamic IP addressees.... what does the future hold for me.. {COUGH} ... I mean, them when IPv6 rolls out?

In Googling around it appears that the Network Manager used to have a nice simple (obvious, logical, straightforward, intuitive, easy-to-use... ... can you tell I'm a bit surprised that there's not a simple button to do this, it's pretty common functionality ) option in the IPv4 tab called "Shared to other computers" allowing you to share your network connection with any computers connected to yours... kind of like this:
[URL] ....
Professor Google seems to indicate that this may have existed in Debian at one point but, I don't see this option anymore. How do I get it back (or is there another gui way to do this without editing the /etc/network/interfaces file... if there's no other way to do this... that's fine but I'd prefer an easy method of enabling and disabling sharing)?
What I'm trying to do... I have a Beaglebone Black connected via IP over USB. When I'm ssh'ed into the BeagleBone, I want to be able to use aptitude install to grab new packages etc... and that kind of requires access to the outside world. Everything I've found so far seems to to require a modification to the interfaces file but since (according to the interfaces man page) the preferred method is to use the network manager if possible... I'm trying to avoid that.
* It should be noted that I'm running sid with the experimental 4.3 kernel so... maybe in doing so I've shot myself in the foot?

The installation of Ubuntu 9.10 on my HP NC640 worked fine and the network adaptor was successfully recognised: I see the message 'Wired Network Connection 'Auto Eth0' active' and when I open Active Network Connections I see the IP addresses that have been assigned.
However, if I open Firefox, I cannot connect to the internet. I tried pinging some addresses (www.yahoo.com) and that seemed fine. I then tried to run a first system update and Ubuntu seemed to be able to retrieve some packages but not others.
I then tried opening 'Network Connections' and adjusted the MTU (to 1100) and changing the settings of IPv6 (various settings: eg. 'ignore') but none of that seemed to help. Here I wanted to switch off IPv6 but it looks like none of the settings did this. Is there maybe another place where I should be looking? Do I have to do this with the command line? (I hope not) Or can I switch off IPv6 in the system settings? And should MTU be automatic? Or should I set something there?

share an external USB NTFS drive on my home network. The drive is attached to my desktop box running Debian Lenny. It's accessible on the desktop. I have a directory on the drive that I would like to make accessible to a Windows XP laptop. Read-only would be fine. The laptop has wireless access to the network.

I have two linux laptops. Currently, I'm using both of them at work, side-by-side. Now the problem is, I'm connected to a wireless router, but the wireless only works on one of the laptops. So I'm stuck with one laptop that has no access to the internet. Both machines do, however, have working ethernet nic cards. So, I was wondering if I could use the laptop with the wireless connection to share the internet connection with my other linux machine and access the internet on both of them. Or as an alternative, just use the internet on the machine without wireless and be able to switch back and forth, that would increase my productivity like 30 fold.

I 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 addes IPv6 address to my interface as
Code:
ifconfig eth0 inet6 add 3fff:ffff:6:5:4:3:2:1
But, when I restart the network service this IPv6 address is gone. How could I make it as a permanent IPv6 address( that should be edited or deleted when I want but not when I only restart the network)to my interface?

I am trying to configure my IPv6 network. My computers are behind a Fedora gateway IPv6-configured, which is working great. But for computers inside my network, it seems I am getting only internal addresses from DHCP. Here is my ifconfig for an internal computer:

I am looking for a way to set a default for new users for the akonadi mysql.conf file that is created for each user for the akonadi database. Usually this file contains a inno_db_log_file_size of 64MB. Because of this the database eats up 64MB storage even if its still empty. I would like to decrease this size globally for each "new" user since we have very tight storage restrictions on our NFS home directories now. And 64MB make up already have the quota each user has. So this is to much. where is this default mysql.conf file taken from?
I found hints that there used to be a /usr/share/config/akonadi/mysql-global.conf file that was simply copied but I cannot find such a file on my 11.4 system. It seems things have changed. how akonadis user specific mysql.conf file in ~/.local/share/akonadi/ is generated for a new user? How can I use my own template file here?
