This caught my interest this morning so I set up a commented-out trial in /etc/rc.d for my ipv6 entry; the one I had in my database /etc/namedb/* files blew my connection sky-high recently. Does this seem plausible: # ## ipv6 config # # ipv6_enable="YES" # ipv6_defaultrouter="2002:d1b4:d5d2::" # ipv6_default_interface="em0" # ipv6_gateway_enable="YES" given that my Adress record is 209.180.213.210 ? tia, gents, gary -- Gary Kline [email protected] http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix http://jottings.thought.org http://transfinite.thought.org The 7.79a release of Jottings: http://jottings.thought.org/index.php _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
