IPv6
I don't expect much here. Just please include the precompiled ipv6.o in the modules directory for the next RAIDiator release. :D

Thanks, I'm gonna study-up on it some more!
There is a few ISP's out there that provide various IPv6 tunnels allowing you to set up IPv6 access to the Internet without your ISP providing native IPv6.
I have used Hurricane Electric Internet Services (http://he.net/) free 6in4 tunnel (http://www.tunnelbroker.net/). They give you a routed /64 and an optional routed /48 IPv6 address space for your tunnel.
They also have a free simple training/certification that you can go through.
I began using a Hurricane Electric tunnel on an Ubuntu system until my firewall supported IPv6. I have also been able to set it up on an Apple Airport Extreme.
