I've not had much of a play with DDNS or DHCPv6 - I've got radvd running on my network which is pretty straightforward, except for the DNS stuff :-/ Sorry Dave – apologies for not replying sooner…

Good spot! You’re absolutely right – I messed up editing my real config and accidentally swapped the interfaces. Good spot!

Given the following prefixes:

- LAN – 2001:470:90d3:1::/64
- DMZ – 2001:470:90d3:2::/64

Shouldn’t this:

# Allow all outbound from our networks
ip6tables -A FORWARD -i dmz -s 2001:470:90d3:1::/64 -j ACCEPT
ip6tables -A FORWARD -i lan -s 2001:470:90d3:2::/64 -j ACCEPT
ip6tables -A FORWARD -i wlan -s 2001:470:90d3:3::/64 -j ACCEPT

Be this?
(switched lan and dmz prefixes)

# Allow all outbound from our networks
ip6tables -A FORWARD -i lan -s 2001:470:90d3:1::/64 -j ACCEPT
ip6tables -A FORWARD -i dmz -s 2001:470:90d3:2::/64 -j ACCEPT
ip6tables -A FORWARD -i wlan -s 2001:470:90d3:3::/64 -j ACCEPT

Please let me know if I am mistaken or not.

So far I've only been able to get both forward and reverse DDNS entries with RHEL 6 as both the client and server. Ubuntu Natty-Narwhal gets a forward entry but no reverse. Older versions of either don't work. Have you had any luck getting DDNS working with IPv6 DHCP? Oh yeah, I haven't gotten any combination to update resolv.conf with IPv6 nameserver information so same question on DHCP "info" (nameserver, NTP servers, etc.). I'll have a new posting to my blog with how I got this far shortly. Any pointers or suggestions for getting Ubuntu to talk to RHEL would be appreciated.
