How to prefer IPv6 on the Mac OS X Sierra?

[Scott Granados]

Hi, so I’ve been reading that IPv6 connections should be preferred under OS X 
Sierra but it doesn’t appear that’s happening.  If I test my IPv6 connection I 
get a valid IPv4 and IPV6 address, It shows I’m using a 6 to 4 tunnel, ping6 
and a manual nslookup show a valid  record returned when I test.  I do get 
an error during IPv6 testing that my dos (possibly ISP) dos server does not 
have access to the IPv6 network and that may prevent access in the future.
When I use any tools like ssh or safari it shows me using IPv4.  It 
seems like I have things working end to end but IPv4 is still preferred.  Any 
ideas as to what I’m doing wrong?

Thanks
Scott

Good day,
As I'm a System Admin, I, too, prefer IPV6.
However, IPV6 depends on the ISP and the IP pool being pulled from.
Most ISP's still use IPV4 for backwards compatibility for older devices, though 
most modem'/router combo's employe both IPV4 and IPV6 support, but this IPV6 
support usually is disabled until the ISP fully supports it.
So it's possible that what you may have done is correct, but it's an ISP 
problem.

Well I have end to end ping by IP resolution so I can for example ping the IPV6 
addresses at google.  SO routing is working.  I have a 6 to 4 tunnel up with 
Hurricane Electric and it appears that Things are good other than the protocol 
selection.  It could be DNS related I suppose but I can resolve  records 
internal so I’m not sure what’s wrong yet.

Yes, first look at DNS. Perhaps use Googles DNS servers. I highly distrust
default DHCP servers provided by Home use Internet service providers. I
have seen significant issues with them resolving things incorrectly to try
to make you send your traffic in places it shouldn't go.

Re: How to prefer IPv6 on the Mac OS X Sierra?

[Scott Granados]

Ok, so I put 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 in place.  Still behaving the same.  I may try 
to delete the servers (my router and another IPV6 address) from the local 
resolver.  I can resolve the v6 names though which is odd, that seems to work 
fine.
I can also ping them using ping6.

Re: How to prefer IPv6 on the Mac OS X Sierra?

[Scott Granados]

I think I got it although I’m not quite sure why.;). I think part of my issue 
is I’m working with a 6 to 4 tunnel in stead of a 6 in 4 tunnel which uses the 
assigned public routable blocks from HE.  This gives me some sort of 2002 
address but does seem to be routable, I trace routed and it went back to 
Hurricane Electric.  IT just seems to be some sort of global pool.  I need to 
learn more about 6 to 4 I think.

Right now, if I go to whatismyip.com  though, I get my 
IP in IPv6 form, so that’s something right?

[zoe fiogkos]

Hi fellow listers, moderators, and owners. Hope you are all doing ok.
Unfortunately I have no choice, I have to unsubscribe from all the email
groups I belong to. I haven't been able to check email and be online for a
long time and it seems I will be out of things for much longer. When I
turned on my laptop this morning I had over fifteen thousand emails waiting
for me. Given my situation I just can't keep up anymore. I pray that one day
I recover and are able to join my favourite groups again.  My family is
against me telling people what's wrong but I feel in writing this email I'm
also helping myself to come to grips with my illness. I will remain
subscribed a few more days so that I may read your thoughts in hopes that
your words might help me to continue to fight this awful illness.
Again I'm sorry for the off topic post and I hope the moderators can find it
in their hearts to forgive me, and if one day I recover I hope they will
remember me and let me back in to my favourite mailing groups.
Before I tell you all my story, I would like to thank each and every one of
you for either your help on various topics, or your individual private help
through the phone or private email, or your messages of getting to know me,
or your words of encouragement when it came to the mac, jaws, NVDA, windows
10, household tips, cooking instructions, prayers, and harmless chit chat.
If I offended anyone in anyway, or gave anyone a hard time please forgive
me.
Here's my unbelievable story.
Last August I was doing a lot of gardening mostly weeding to be honest. I
was on my hands and knees from morning to night pulling weeds and keeping my
property clean. I am grateful to the good Lord for blessing me to have such
a lovely property but it's old and no one ever took care of the garden. The
result is weeds on top of my weeds. Chemicals are forbidden here in Canada,
and I haven't been able to find an affordable solution, so I'm left with
fighting weeds on a daily bases. I am a sun lover and adore summer, last
summer was the first time in my life that I couldn't wait for summer to be
over. I was exhausted and I have nothing to remember for my 2016 summer
except pulling weeds all most every day for the whole entire spring, summer,
and fall.
In August I noticed 2 mosquito bites on my elbow and 2 on my inner left
thigh. The bites were very itchy just like normal mosquito bites, so I
didn't think anything of it. I also noticed my nails were black underneath.
I thought it was dirt from the garden, to spite that I was showering every
single day and cleaning my nails, the next morning they would be filthy
again. Again I thought it strange but I justified it in my head as to much
gardening. In August my husband and I visited a few local restaurants and
spent two nights in a motel in north Ontario for a weekend away.
I wanted to try my hand at building a small business doing something I love
so I decided to start making my own bracelets and selling them online. I
have always loved costume jewellery and to spite my vision problems, I have
been taught that there is nothing I can't do. My mother always said "try and
if you fail, oh well, life goes on. Try different things until you find
something you are good at and you love doing." So I talked to my mom and
husband and they both backed me as they always do. My mother who adores me
spent over six thousand dollars to buy my supplies, and encouraged me on a
daily bases. My husband turned half of my computer room into a work space
with special lighting, magnifying contraptions, shelving, etc. My husband
and mom bought me bins with dividers and I spent months sorting beads and
other supplies by color, size, and type. I got help from someone on one of
these mailing lists and he helped me to create labels to label all these
bins. Everything was going great, or so I thought.
I spent hours teaching myself how to make these beautiful bracelets, I
finally got the hang of it after much trial and error and I was ready to go.
I registered on etsy.com and opened up a Facebook small business page. I
bought more supplies to host a launching party with food, drinks, and gifts
for my guests to introduce them to my creations and my new business. While
all this was happening, I noticed in October that the mosquito bites were
not going away. They had become scabby and even more itchier.
I showed my mom and she justified it just like I had done in my mind. Due to
my type two diabetes they were taking a long time to heal as many things do
when you have diabetes.
At the beginning of November as some of you already know, I started to have
problems with my right eye. Long story short for those who don't know, I
suffer from a cornea disease. My cornea was trying to break. This had
happened before but this time it was persistent and my doctor had to try
different medications to stop the cornea from breaking. While I was battling
this cornea problem I noticed my right arm becoming very itchy and the two
mosquito bites

Hi, Zoe. Its been a long time since I’ve seen you on the Mac Visionaries list. 
Wow!  I’m so sorry to hear about your scabies illness, and that its gotten 
progressively worse. I had never heard about this disease until your email and 
afterwards, I looked up more info about it on wikipedia. Thank you for sharing 
your story and letting me and the other listers know why you decided to leave 
the group.
I wish you the best in fighting this illness, and pray for you to have a speedy 
recovery.

Re: How to prefer IPv6 on the Mac OS X Sierra?

['Janina Sajka' via MacVisionaries]

Scott:

You should definitely be routable in a Tunnel Broker 6to4. I used one
for years before I finally got native 6. The only times it broke for me
occured when I lost my underlying, ISP delegated 4 address and had to
re-register the tunnel end point.


You should be able to do anything you want, e.g. ssh into your machine.

Re: How to prefer IPv6 on the Mac OS X Sierra?

[Scott Granados]

That’s what it seems, the interesting problem is getting my applications to use 
V6.

I’ve seen it work a little but not consistently.  I’m thinking Netgear’s 
implementation may have issues but I’ll keep noodling around with it.  I’m able 
to pass data over the link just name resolution seems odd and the order of 
things IE V4 being selected instead of V6.

 Donna, before I would do anything radical like that, I'm wondering if you

 could've gotten corrupted. The other thing you might try is unplugging the

 plug it back in. I've had difficulty with one of my speakers on occasion 
 losing its connection, and that's what I've done. I have been speaking 
 with Sonos about this and we are trying to nail down what the issue might 
 be. They want me to call them when I actually lose sound because they can 
 perform diagnostics on there and to check out what might be going on.

Lyft app

[Sarai Bucciarelli]

Hi guys:
We just got Lyft. A friend sent me Lyft credits or free ride, something like 
that. Everytime I open the App, I do not see a car around. How do you use the 
App? Can you pick a car, and have someone follow your trip like you can with 
Uber? Any general tips I need to know about? Can you tell how far away the car 
is? How do you add extra stops so if I wanted to stop for food on the way home?

Re: prayers and leaving this wonderful group for now

[Scott Granados]

Homeopath medicine is a scam, be very careful.  The principle so they claim is 
they take some sort of theoretical toxin or something you’re allergic to etc 
and dilute it by millions of times in water.  The water is supposed to contain 
some essence / energy of the agent they added.  This is bunk.  It’s diluted so 
far past the point of even being measurable.  It’s right up there with snake 
oil.
The only thing that I’ve heard of that works for this are very high end 
antibiotics similar to that used to treat anthrax or other critical infections.

Here’s an article that explains just how much of a scam Homeopathy is.

https://www.quackwatch.com/01QuackeryRelatedTopics/homeo.html 


Be very very careful, don’t spend your money on this, it’s not going to help.

Now there is a similar condition that some suspect is a real illness.  Keep in 
mind up front many authorities feel it is a psychological issue but there are a 
group who are starting to think tire’s more to it.  Read more here.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-2096439/Morgellons-IS-real-Thousands-claim-suffer-agonising-skin-condition-doctors-claim-psychological.html
 


The diagnosis sounded similar to what your doctor mentioned and what you might 
try and do is contact some of the doctors mentioned in the article who don’t 
believe it’s a mental condition but a real illness.

Another option is it’s something that a Steroid could help with.  There are 
conditions that mimic what you are saying and are addressed with steroid cream. 
 If you get a good steroid cream it will be bound with a terrific moisturizer 
that may also help you.
Keep in mind what you think may be bugs might not be.  They might be as 
well but you shouldn’t need anything as extreme as the dangerous oils and 
chemicals your using.  Something as simple as salt baths should help.  To bad 
you’re not on the coast swimming in the ocean does wonders for the skin.  I 
really think if possible you should find another doctor maybe one more open 
mentioned in the article.  It also could be psychological and resulting from 
the drama you underwent and are undergoing which may have has a physical start 
and just grown out of that.  Don’t rule that out.  Save your money though on 
the home remedies and especially the homeopathy and channel that in to 
reputable options.  There are doctors who will be more sympathetic.  Might be 
worth a trip to the University of San Francisco for example mentioned as an 
option.

Be careful, I’m definitely pulling for you and get your self a better doctor, 
start researching there and I think you’ll find a solution that really works.

Good luck and stay strong

Re: prayers and leaving this wonderful group for now

[Karen Lewellen]

Zoe,
You know something?  I am already joyously anticipating your return.  I am 
already appreciating the amazing story you will share of your recovery, 
and 
of all the things you  teach those participating in your healing.
I say this because, as hard as it may be to imagine right now, the God you 
serve  never abandons you, leaves you alone, or forsakes you.  In truth 
you need not ask for mercy because grace unconditional love healing and 
infinite mercy are yours just because you exist.
No soul with such perseverance passion to keep living, and willingness to 
still choose faith at all  can anticipate anything less than divine 
transformation.

I can write this yes?  but it is not my body.
I can and do hold you in  the light and love of the God you serve, because 
I know no  more creative healer can be found.
Still the faith  must come from you.  No matter how small, appreciate 
anything  at all.  No matter how tiny give thanks the best you can. 
Speaking for myself the vibration of struggle will only fortify the 
struggle.   I believe you can because You write  strongly of your faith, 
fine thing is it not that a 
tiny  mustard seed is all you need?
homeopathy is a terrific field, naturalpathic medicine too, both of which are 
regulated branches of medicine   in Ontario as you know.
Trust that since the God you serve  never leaves you, that salvation can 
come to you from ways that are infinite in their possibilities.
If you can, as you can, bless where you are, with the loving support of 
your husband, and a bunch of strangers reading of your bravery in this 
situation who are pulling for you!

Kare

If I offended anyone in anyway, or gave anyone a hard time please forgive

Here's my unbelievable story.
Last August I was doing a lot of gardening mostly weeding to be honest. I
was on my hands and knees from morning to night pulling weeds and keeping my
property clean. I am grateful to the good Lord for blessing me to have such
a lovely property but it's old and no one ever took care of the garden. The
result is weeds on top of my weeds. Chemicals are forbidden here in Canada,
and I haven't been able to find an affordable solution, so I'm left with
fighting weeds on a daily bases. I am a sun lover and adore summer, last
summer was the first time in my life that I couldn't wait for summer to be
over. I was exhausted and I have nothing to remember for my 2016 summer
except pulling weeds all most every day for the whole entire spring, summer,
and fall.
In August I noticed 2 mosquito bites on my elbow and 2 on my inner left
thigh. The bites were very itchy just like normal mosquito bites, so I
didn't think anything of it. I also noticed my nails were black underneath.
I thought it was dirt from the garden, to spite that I was showering every
single day and cleaning my nails, the next morning they would be filthy
again. Again I thought it strange but I justified it in my head as to much
gardening. In August my husband and I visited a few local restaurants and
spent two nights in a motel in north Ontario for a weekend away.
I wanted to try my hand at building a small business doing something I love
so I decided to start making my own bracelets and selling them online. I
have always loved costume jewellery and to spite my vision problems, I have
been taught that there is nothing I can't do. My mother always said "try and
if you fail, oh well, life goes on. Try different things until you find
something you are good at and you love doing." So I talked to my mom and
husband and they both backed me as th

Hi Zoe,

I'm so sorry to hear all that you've been through.  It sounds truly awful.  I 
send you good thoughts for recovery, and hope that you will be back with us 
soon.
