Does the script need to be started manually, or is it started automatically at reboot?

2. Is it necessary for the script to be started in order for Skype to work?

Thanks.

The scripts in /etc/network are run automatically when your network connection comes up. So you don't have to run anything.

Gtalk works, skype doesn't, geeps loads, but doesn't get gps info from internet.

When I start xterm, I see the following message repeated 6x :
ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib/libnat64.s0' from /etc/ld.so.preload cannot be preloaded: ignored.

Let me know if more info is needed.

Ah. For that error message, edit /etc/ld.so.preload and delete the line that says /usr/lib/libnat64.so

for skype, can you login? Does it just give you the "unable to connect to one or more accounts"

Can you check to see if you have a default route? (ip route list exact 0.0.0.0/0)

for the gps problem, I still need to research it.

Ok. I uploaded nat64d version 1.1. That should fix the route problem, which is what probably caused your problems with skype and gps based on cell tower.

With this version, my phone gets a "coarse accuracy" location with the location-home-applet package, geeps package, and ovi maps.

OK, installed new version, everything appears to work now (skype, sip, gtalk, TOR, GeePS).

Still had to fix ld.so.preload. No big deal.

Thanks for the hard work.

The ld.so.preload file was supposed to be fixed with the command "/usr/bin/register_nat64 deinstall" (has to happen before removing the libnat64 package). This is documented on the wiki for ldpreload, but I should probably just add it to a deinstall script in the libnat64 package.

Glad to hear it's working!

Ok, so how do I uninstall libnat64?

Two commands (as root):

/usr/bin/register_nat64 deinstall
dpkg -r libnat64

Ahh, my fault then, didn't run the deinstall, just removed it with dpkg. Too much plunging ahead, not enough reading. (Although in your favor, it was working well enough that I hadn't needed to remove it prior to the new version

)

Is it possible that the new Nat64D is eating battery more than LDPreloadNat64? Two days ago I installed the new Nat64D (nothing else changed on my phone) and now the battery is out in about one day.

I'm not sure about this, but unscientifically, it seems to me that both were draining more power than the regular IPv6 connection. In other words the latest updates that do the nat portion so the IPv4 only stuff works, seems to draw more.

I can't say if the new nat64d is drawing more that the ldpreload version though.
