I have a network with a 6.2-RELEASE machine as a gateway to the outside world, and on the inside three machines hung off it, running OSX, XPx64 and 6.2-RELEASE as well. The gateway machine NATs the internal network under Ipv4 and runs IPv6 via 6to4. It has routing advertised on the internal network. This *should* work - the OSX machine gets an IPv6 address and runs fine. The Windows XP x64 machine also gets an IPv6 address, and though it has problems with some wwebsites, it also basically works. The only machine which refuses to work is the FreeBSD machine, which refuses to acquire an IPv6 address! I find it very opuzzling, as this has worked in the past, and also the one machine I nwould have thought I would have had no problems with would have been the FreeBSD box - especially as the gateway machine is running an identical OS! I am not even sure where to start debugging this - how can I make the interface try and get an IPv6 address whilst watching what it is doing ? Has anyone else had problems like this ? -pete.
