[ale] IPV6, Freenet6.net, and routing

[Scott Nolde]

I've got IPv6 compiled in and a tunnel established to the 6bone from my
firewall.  I can ping6 a couple of IPv6 enable sites:
[root at gw /root]# ping6 -i 5 www.normos.org
PING www.normos.org(www.normos.org) 56 data bytes
64 bytes from www.normos.org: icmp_seq=0 hops=64 time=59.334 msec
64 bytes from www.normos.org: icmp_seq=1 hops=64 time=57.760 msec
64 bytes from www.normos.org: icmp_seq=2 hops=64 time=59.607 msec
64 bytes from www.normos.org: icmp_seq=3 hops=64 time=58.856 msec

I've also enabled IPv6 on my linux client machine (what I'm writing this
on) and it's figured out it's ipv6 address and created a P-t-P link on
sit1 to 206.123.31.102 (6bone router).

My big question is how do I route IPv6 requests from my client through
the firewall to the 6bone?  

Here's some interface info from the firewall:
