If you are trying to do ddnsv6 using dhcpv6, you might have better luck with using the ISC dhcpv6 client at the same patchlevel as the server. (You will need to compile on your own, as ISC 4.1 dhcp does not seem to be in the freebsd ports collection at this time). In my own testing, I also needed to tell dhclient (ISC variant)'s dhclient-script how to locate ifconfig and route (simple script change from ifconfig to /sbin/ifconfig and from route to /sbin/route). Take a look at the dhclient.conf (5) man page from the ISC package under "DYNAMIC DNS". You will likely need a dhclient.conf with items like: send fqdn.fqdn "test.example.com."; send fqdn.encoded on; send fqdn.server-update off; also request dhcp6.fqdn; This also assumes that the ISC dhcpd server is configured with appropriate information to actually have the server perform updates. I have not actually turned ddns on with DHCPv6 yet, so these are just suggestions. According to RFC 4704, the protocol supports either client or server actually performing the updates, but not certain which cases work properly with ISC at this point. Please share if/when you get a working configuration with any dhcpv6 client/server combination. Good Luck. ---Dave Horn
