I was just trying out IPv6 on Thursday with Tiger (10.4.11)...
Some notes:
* You have to manually configure the DNS server IPv6 address (MacOS
doesn't support
DHCPv6 or RFC 5006).
This much I did, using the address provided here:
http://wiki.tools.isoc.org/IETF71_IPv4_Outage
I have briefly experimented with wide-dhcpv6, though I didn't use too
long since
both Miredo and Aiccu are able to provide the IPv6 addresses I need.
* You have to turn off the MacOS firewall (it blocks incoming IPv6
port 53 by default
and there's no way to change that from the firewall GUI that I could
discover).
I'll check this out.
* Firefox and Camino require a special non-default setting to work
with IPv6. Go to
"about:config". Safari works by default.
Already done. As mentioned I am able to connect to http://ipv6.google.com/
I also got Jabber (Adium) working (you need an account on a v6
enabled server).
Cool.
I didn't try SSH, however.
This works when I refer to the local machine, and it even supports
indicies.
