If you want to setup IPv6 tunnel under Ubuntu you need to use tspc (tunnel setup protocol client) so you can browse IPv6 ready websites using IPv4.
Connecting to the IPv6 Internet requires either a native connection or the cooperation of a friendly server to provide you with a tunnel.Tunnel Server Protocol Client (tspc), is a daemon to automate the setup and maintenance of an IPv6 tunnel. This client will connect to any migration broker which uses Hexago’s implementation.
Install tspc in ubuntu
sudo aptitude install tspc
This will complete the installation.
You can get free IPv6 access form freenet6 register freenet6 account from here to obtain username and password.
Configure tspc
The default configuration file is located at /etc/tsp/tspc.conf. Open file using a text editor using the following command
sudo gedit /etc/tsp/tspc.conf
You need to provide username, password and hostname registered at Freenet6
userid – Yourid
passwd – yourPassWord
server – broker.freenet6.net
Search, userid, server, and passwd variable in file and set them as follows
userid=your-name
server=broker.freenet6.net
passwd=your-password
Save and close the file. Restart tspc service using the following command
sudo /etc/init.d/tspc restart
Testing your IPv6 Connections
Use the following command to see your tunnel IPv6 address
ifconfig tun
Test IPv6 connectivity using the following command
ping6 ipv6.google.com
ping6 www.kame.net
View Google.com IPv6 Address using the following command
host ipv6.google.com
You can use the following commands to start and stop tunnel
sudo /etc/init.d/tspc stop
sudo /etc/init.d/tspc start

GW6C quick install guide (for anon users) a quick few chnages and this will run as a router ;-)
Step 1:
Download and install Freenet
wget http://go6.net/4105/file.asp?file_id=150 -O go6.tar.gz
mkdir go6
cd go6
tar zxf ../go6.tar.gz
rm ../go6.tar.gz
sudo apt-get -y install libcurl4-openssl-dev openssl libcrypto++-dev libpthread-stubs0-dev build-essential
cd ./gw6c-messaging
make target=linux exportdir=../tspc-advanced export
cd ../gw6c-config
make target=linux exportdir=../tspc-advanced export
cd ../tspc-advanced
make target=linux all
sudo make target=linux installdir=/usr/local/gw6c install
cd ~
rm -r go6
Step 2:
Create config file
cd /usr/local/gw6c/bin
sudo rm gw6c.conf #If there are errors here, it's no problem.
sudo gedit gw6c.conf
Paste the following and save:
server=anon.freenet6.net
auth_method=anonymous
host_type=host
prefixlen=64
if_prefix=eth0
dns_server=208.67.222.222
gw6_dir=/usr/local/gw6c
auto_retry_connect=yes
retry_delay=30
keepalive=yes
keepalive_interval=30
tunnel_mode=v6anyv4
if_tunnel_v6v4=sit1
if_tunnel_v6udpv4=tun
if_tunnel_v4v6=sit0
client_v4=auto
client_v6=auto
template=linux
proxy_client=no
broker_list=tsp-broker-list.txt
last_server=tsp-last-server.txt
always_use_same_server=no
log_filename=gw6c.log
log_rotation=yes
log_rotation_size=32
syslog_facility=USER
Step 3:
Run Freenet
cd /usr/local/gw6c/bin
sudo ./gw6c
If you don't see any errors it should be fine. Wait a minute to give it start-up time and go to this page (http://go6.net/). If you see something like 'You are using IPv6', everything went fine!

I use the updated one:
wget http://go6.net/4105/file.asp?file_id=160 -O go6.tar.gz
and edit
gw6_dir=/go6l/gw6c
the result:
root@enigma:/go6/gw6c/bin# ping6 ipv6.google.com
PING ipv6.google.com(tx-in-x68.1e100.net) 56 data bytes
64 bytes from tx-in-x68.1e100.net: icmp_seq=1 ttl=56 time=389 ms
64 bytes from tx-in-x68.1e100.net: icmp_seq=2 ttl=56 time=390 ms

This write-up needs serious work! In attempting to install on Ubuntu Server 9.10 when following the steps I received numerous errors, mostly something not declared, when compiling at the first:
make target=linux exportdir=../tspc-advanced export
Not being a programmer there may be something missing on my box that need to be installed, but this write-up doesn't mention that. Perhaps the author needs to better define the requirements and/or build a vanilla box and test this out more thoroughly.
