Check out.... http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/developers-handbook/ipv6.h= tml ``Some of the userland tools support extended numeric IPv6 syntax, as documented in draft-ietf-ipngwg-scopedaddr-format-00.txt. You can specify outgoing link, by using name of the outgoing interface like "fe80::1%ne0". This way you will be able to specify link-local scoped address without much trouble.'' --=20 Mike Oliver [see complete headers for contact information] --HWvPVVuAAfuRc6SZ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFDAOadsWv7q8X6o8kRAtbVAJ9gfMyhhyDB/EEjmSicUO5Qv1S1ZACcDdmv OhNOxlZG60etPeH2kjTvNMM= =xBx1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --HWvPVVuAAfuRc6SZ--
