I have the Border router set up and working it seems, and the client/host on the same network and ping it - but it knows itself as the interface only ? (fe80+MAC) How do I convince the client that it is actually 2002:cb01:6006::2 I can't discover how to put a 2002 address onto the rl0 interface. I know I know,. ifconfig - but it doesn't seem to make any difference ? OK. From nanguo. (the client) Note it gives the source as the INTERFACE (rl0) $ping6 ruby PING6(56=40+8+8 bytes) fe80::210:b5ff:fee4:4386%rl0 --> 2002:cb01:6006::1 16 bytes from 2002:cb01:6006::1, icmp_seq=0 hlim=64 time=0.773 ms A ping6 from ruby to nanguo the client, just times out. HOWEVER - a ping6 to the interface works? PING6(56=40+8+8 bytes) fe80::240:5ff:fe4e:a982%ed0 --> fe80::210:b5ff:fee4:4386%ed0 16 bytes from fe80::210:b5ff:fee4:4386%ed0, icmp_seq=0 hlim=64 time=1.651 ms In short - I can't see what I need to do here. ............................................. client to router works. ping6 ruby ftp ruby telnet ruby all connect, and show the source address as the fe80+mac, but understand the address its going to correctly. 2002 address. router to client. Only works if I connect to the client using it's fe80+mac address ? It just doesn' want to know about the 2002 address. ............................................ How the heck to I get a 2002 address onto an interface on the client? and have it known about.... Thanks for the assistance folks. This is a real struggle. If I just put the fe80+mac addresses in the dns it would probably work fine - but would anything else then know abut it? ah well. I guess I'd better give it away and do something else. cheers Robert --- Quantum Radio: World Music with a difference. http://quantum-radio.net/ Now Playing: Ethnic Music - Las Calenas - Las Calenas To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
