Hello dear all,

  I run FreeBSD-4.0 (no changes on the generic kernel) and try to
establish a tunnel between a Linux pc and the FreeBSD pc.
Unfortunately there is no documentation in the book how should
it work, not even for tunnel from FreeBSD to FreeBSD.
I have found Information in Internet and I use of course the commands
# gifconfig gif0 inet IPv4(1)  IPv4(2) (tunnel endpoints)
# ifconfig gif0 up
# route add -inet6 3ffe:bla:bla::bla -prefixlen 64 -interface gif0

On the other side for Linux I have togive
# ifconfig sit0 up
# ifconfig sit0 tunnel ::IPV4(remote)
# route -A inet6 add  3ffe:..etc. fe80::IPV4(remote) dev sit1
(sit1 will be automatically there when one configures sit0)


This address: fe80::IPv4(remote) appears as nexthop in the routing table
of the Linux pc, as well as the fe80::IPv4(local). These are addresses
on Link which i don't automatically get on the FreeBSD pc!
And of course I can't reach the FreeBSD and inversely if they don't
understand the same on Link addresse. I hapenned to see on the routing table
of a FreeBSD pc, (a side on the internet) that the fe80::IPv4 address
was included.

Can anybody give me a hint?
It will be greatly appreciated.
Regards:A.L-P
