That means it is having trouble with the given teredo server. Try teredo.ipv6.microsoft.com instead.

Miredo-OSX seems to work just fine for me after the 10.6.2 update. If it is giving you problems, try re-installing.

Hi darco, looks like miredo has stopped working with the latest macosx update 10.6.2, for me anyways. Wish I knew how to build a new version, don suppose you get any buddies who can work on it lol. Thx

Sorry, way to busy with work to try and mess with miredo-osx right now.

Hi Darco, Any possibility of incorporating the latest 1.2.1 release of Miredo into Miredo for OS X?

Basically 1.2.1 "...fixes a deadlock when Miredo fails to initialize properly."

Thank you...

The fact that the preference pane is 32 bit annoys me too, but I'm somewhat hesitant to roll another build just for that. It would provide no benefit and only increase the possibilities of things that could go wrong. If I roll an update, there is a lot more I would like to change than just the preference pane.

At some point in the future I may take another look at miredo-osx and update it to be more modern... But for now it "works", so I have little inventive to "fix" it. The sources are freely available though. Feel free to fix it yourself.

Darco, reinstalling Miredo does work with Snow Leopard indeed. Still, just to minimize the number of applications switching the System Preference to 32 bit, would it be possible to get it recompiled for SL? I also wonder if it may benefit from the 64 bits architecture as well (not likely, but still...). Thanks!

Sorry, I replied to Thaan in an email. Here is what I emailed him:

I've had no problems using miredo-osx on Snow Leopard, without any changes. You may need to reinstall Miredo after installing Snow Leopard though.

Thaan then reported to me that reinstalling miredo-osx did the trick.

Agree with Thaan. Would really like to see an OS X 10.6 build.

Hi,

Are you planning on updating your Miredo package for Mac OS X 10.6? I've been using it everyday over the last year, and would love to update to Snow Leopard, but I can't without my lovely teredo connectivity.

Yeah, you could consider this a cry for an updated version!

Thanks,

Thaan

@darco: It would be nice if instead of disabling Teredo, the default behaviour is to bring it up, but route 2001::/32 at the Teredo interface - removing the need to send traffic via relays.

About 98% of traffic on Teredo and 6to4 relays right now is bittorrent traffic, so OS X desktop boxes are likely to want to talk to other Teredo endpoints.

I was able to find one bug. If you change the teredo server in the audo menu and click apply, it will cause a crash.

Otherwise, works great. Thanks

Is there a plan to release an OS X package based on a more recent version of miredo any time soon? If I understand things correctly, your package is built against 1.0.6.

I've been playing with teredo (as supplied by you) for quite some time now. And I've been very happy with it. Keep up the good work.

@Greg: The default behavior is that miredo is disabled if a globally routable IPv6 address has already been assigned to at least one interface. So, yes there is hope.

However... There is a bug if you put the machine to sleep with a teredo address and it wakes up on a network with native IPv6. In this case, miredo will unfortunately clobber the default IPv6 route when it tries to disable itself. >_<

Greg Harewood — Fri, 22 Feb 2008 21:33:13 +0000

I'm hoping that, by default, it only runs when a native LAN IPv6 address is not supplied. Ideally, it would go like this....

1. Native address - use
2. No native, check for legal address, try 6to4.
3. RFC1918? Activate miredo.

Any hope?

Between the work done by you here and 'Rémi Denis-Courmont' on Miredo, I think we almost have something that we can let loose on the general public. When you move beyond prerelease mode, I think a discussion forum would be handy, as well as listing on VersionTracker.

It should be noted that Teredo was created because of NATs. Most 4to6 solutions are designed to work in environments where NAT does not exist, and therefore Microsoft came up with a solution knowing many people are stuck behind NATs these days.

Keep up the good work!!
