I've been trying to get IVP6 running on my tor bridge, and ever since I've had this great idea it's been a Mount Kilimajaro vertical climb with me not getting much past the base of the mountain.
I am installing on a Digital Ocean Droplet (Ubuntu 20.4). IVP6 has been enabled on the site.
Secondly I used the Tor Configator to set up the torrc file. Below is the file from Tor Configator, somewhat modified by me.
ORPort 6XXX
ORPort [2604:a880:400:d0::1998:a001]:auto
ExtORPort auto

Repeated error after many tries:

The IVP is the public address assigned by Digital Ocean to the Droplet. The range is from a001 - a001 F
I've tried following online websites and I have learned that much of that information is or is not trustable. Hard to know when you are new to Tor.
Any help would be appreciated, and thank you!!
ip addr
, do you see your IPv6 address there?
