/etc/network/interfaces :
Code:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

auto he-ipv6
iface he-ipv6 inet6 v4tunnel
    address 2001:470:1f04:14d8::2
    netmask 64
    endpoint 72.52.104.74
    up ip route add ::/0 dev he-ipv6 metric 1
    up ip -6 addr add 2001:470:1f05:14d8::1:1/128 dev he-ipv6
    post-up sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding=1

aaaa with linode :
Code:
nslookup -type=aaaa zorbanation.com

Non-authoritative answer:
zorbanation.com has AAAA address 2001:470:1f05:14d8::1:1

/etc/nsd3/primary/reverse.zone :
Code:

Sorry it was so much but I didn't want to leave anything out, the problem is simply reverse doesn't work, I've given ample time for propagation so I'm here hoping one of you people who are smarter than me can shed some light.

Thanks for your time.

Unless I'm reading that wrong, it looks like you're trying to set up a reverse zone for the point-to-point link (WAN) address. HE will only delegate the LAN reverse zone.

Thanks for your response, yes indeed I was trying to reverse on the point to point /64 instead of the one he.net actually routes.

Anyway it's all been changed now and I'll wait a while and see what happens. I've edited my post to include a 1:1 copy of each file, I really didn't know the policy for posting your domains and such in the forums.

When I run nslookup from other machines I get the following:
Code:
nslookup 2001:470:1f05:14d8::1:1

Name:    zorbanation.com.8.d.4.1.5.0.f.1.0.7.4.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa
Address:  2001:470:1f05:14d8::1:1


Is it normal for an ipv6 address to return the whole thing like that? I haven't dealth with ipv6 before at all.

Thanks for your help.

Edit: clearly I'm doing something wrong as when I run nslookup on any other ipv6 ip it doesn't return the domain + the in addr part. The tutorial I followed said to set up a slave zone in linode dns manager for 8.d.4.1.5.0.f.1.0.7.4.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa, pointed to my external ip, is this the problem?

Add a period at the end of the right-hand side: "zorbanation.com." ... without the . at the end, it assumes the name is relative to the current zone. This lets you do stuff like "IN MX 10 mail", but it will always mess you up. :-)

Also, remember to increment the serial number in the SOA whenever you change something.

(Otherwise looking good, aside from that.)

Someone in the one of the linode irc channels pointed it out to me, fixed it and it's propagating now, works perfectly.

Silly period.

Thanks for your help!
