It looks like eanaeltu is not reachable from the UK via IPv6 right now.

Traceroute for me stops at 2001:668:0:2::8d88:69e5, which is in .de - not sure why it's going UK -> DE, maybe some mess-up in the global IPv6 routing.

Was going to do some work on Tirea's vrrtepcli program, but this makes that impossible for me... wget takes 5+ minutes to grab dictionary data as it has to wait for ipv6 to time out. :(

That has to be some kind of network event. Everything looks OK from here...

My guess is that someone is incorrectly announcing your provider's IPv6 address prefix, and causing them to end up being routed to Germany - I think you need to inform your IPv6 provider (as the owner of the affected prefix) so that they can investigate what's going on.  It's still unreachable this morning.

Well, what is weird is that the other sites on the server are working on IPv6. It's just EanaEltu that isn't working. It's entirely possible that it has never worked. I don't think anyone has ever tried to get there on IPv6 before.  8)

I've been using IPv6 over a decade (I was part of 6bone's default-route free zone at one point), so that's not the issue.  It /certainly/ used to work in the past, because I developed vrrtepcli's update script with IPv6 connectivity here.

eanaeltu has a different IPv6 address to the rest of LN.org - maybe it's a DNS issue then?

That's because I don't have EanaEltu running through the CloudFlare CDN. Turning that on doesn't fix it. It should answer on the address given.

Edit:
Well,  I just enabled it again and now it works. I guess I'll just leave it laundering through CloudFlare. Weird.
