Here is quick rundown on setting -advmethods using the Linux 6.29 Client with the -configonly parameter. If this method is used you do not have to add the -advmethods parameter when starting fah6. In fact you start fah6 with no parameters using this method.
Note: This does not work with the Linux 6.02 client, I know it works with 6.24beta and 6.29.
