Ciao, I was trying to configure my host with IPv6. I've verified: 1) options INET6 # IPv6 communications protocols exists in /usr/src/sys/amd64/conf/MYKERNEL, and it is. 2) in /etc/rc.conf: ipv6_enable="YES" to be enabled, and it is. But: > ping6 -c4 ::1 ping6: ai_family not supported even if ifconfig output: lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 16384 options=3<RXCSUM,TXCSUM> inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xffffff00 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 inet6 fe80::1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2 I'm a IPv6 newbie, but I've not understood from what I've read until now what I've missed or where/what I did wrong configuring IPv6 on FreeBSD 8.1. Can you please help me with links, hints or explains to fix it and get it running? Here there is also sysctl output filtered by inet6. > sysctl -A | grep inet6 net.inet6.ip6.forwarding: 0 net.inet6.ip6.redirect: 1 net.inet6.ip6.hlim: 64 net.inet6.ip6.stats: Format:S,ip6stat Length:3312 Dump:0x00000000000000000000000000000000... net.inet6.ip6.maxfragpackets: 6400 net.inet6.ip6.accept_rtadv: 0 net.inet6.ip6.keepfaith: 0 net.inet6.ip6.log_interval: 5 net.inet6.ip6.hdrnestlimit: 15 net.inet6.ip6.dad_count: 1 net.inet6.ip6.auto_flowlabel: 1 net.inet6.ip6.defmcasthlim: 1 net.inet6.ip6.gifhlim: 30 net.inet6.ip6.kame_version: FreeBSD net.inet6.ip6.use_deprecated: 1 net.inet6.ip6.rr_prune: 5 net.inet6.ip6.v6only: 1 net.inet6.ip6.rtexpire: 3600 net.inet6.ip6.rtminexpire: 10 net.inet6.ip6.rtmaxcache: 128 net.inet6.ip6.use_tempaddr: 0 net.inet6.ip6.temppltime: 86400 net.inet6.ip6.tempvltime: 604800 net.inet6.ip6.auto_linklocal: 1 net.inet6.ip6.rip6stats: Format:S,rip6stat Length:56 Dump:0x00000000000000000000000000000000... net.inet6.ip6.prefer_tempaddr: 0 net.inet6.ip6.use_defaultzone: 0 net.inet6.ip6.maxfrags: 6400 net.inet6.ip6.mcast_pmtu: 0 net.inet6.ip6.mcast.loop: 1 net.inet6.ip6.mcast.maxsocksrc: 128 net.inet6.ip6.mcast.maxgrpsrc: 512 net.inet6.ip6.fw.deny_unknown_exthdrs: 1 net.inet6.ip6.fw.enable: 1 net.inet6.ipsec6.ipsecstats: Format:S,ipsecstat Length:12504 Dump:0x00000000000000000000000000000000... net.inet6.ipsec6.def_policy: 1 net.inet6.ipsec6.esp_trans_deflev: 1 net.inet6.ipsec6.esp_net_deflev: 1 net.inet6.ipsec6.ah_trans_deflev: 1 net.inet6.ipsec6.ah_net_deflev: 1 net.inet6.ipsec6.ecn: 0 net.inet6.ipsec6.debug: 0 net.inet6.ipsec6.filtertunnel: 0 net.inet6.icmp6.stats: Format:S,icmp6stat Length:4328 Dump:0x00000000000000000000000000000000... net.inet6.icmp6.rediraccept: 1 net.inet6.icmp6.redirtimeout: 600 net.inet6.icmp6.nd6_prune: 1 net.inet6.icmp6.nd6_delay: 5 net.inet6.icmp6.nd6_umaxtries: 3 net.inet6.icmp6.nd6_mmaxtries: 3 net.inet6.icmp6.nd6_useloopback: 1 net.inet6.icmp6.nodeinfo: 3 net.inet6.icmp6.errppslimit: 100 net.inet6.icmp6.nd6_maxnudhint: 0 net.inet6.icmp6.nd6_debug: 0 net.inet6.icmp6.nd6_prlist: Format:N Length:128 Dump:0x1c1c000000000000fe80000000000000... net.inet6.icmp6.nd6_maxqueuelen: 1 net.inet6.icmp6.nd6_onlink_ns_rfc4861: 0 net.inet6.mld.use_allow: 1 net.inet6.mld.v1enable: 1 net.inet6.mld.gsrdelay: 10 Thank you in advance, \ferz
