    The fact that it pings does not necesarily imply that the node is IPv6 reachable. But in this case it does. I do not know why I could not connect yesterday, but now I can.

    I have updated the list. Thanx for the feedback.



    Cheers, Michiel

    Hello Michiel.

    The fault may be mine. The v6 IP's that I have are derived from the individual static v4 IP's that I currently have. My ISP *suggests* that since the v6 IP are derived from static IP's they shouldn't change. My experience has taught me
    that that isn't the case. As I have had to update the AAAA records manually several times.

    I am working on a bash script that will detect an v6 IP change and send that updated IP to my DNS provider.

    For a time my ISP did offer the purchase/lease of a block of static v6 IP's. But they look to have changed that to derived IP's now.
