I had a problem communicating with datatracker.ietf.org. With the help 
of Bill Fenner and some debugging we figured out that this is due to 
IPv6 MTU problem on the second hop from the hotel. You can't ping6 
2001:770:8:45::1 with 1500 bytes, but you can with 1300. In practice 
this means that anyone using IPv6 will have serious problems. I tested 
to www.kame.net and MTU of 1432+40+8=1480 works, but nothing higher than 
that. So presumably we have a 20 byte IPv4 tunnel header somewhere. 
ICMPv6 packet too bigs or something should be generated, or the tunnel 
MTU changed. Fragments seem to have a problem too.

Here's what's happening:

Russ,

I am forwarding your message on to the NOC, they should be able to
answer this.
