Actually, there was one before.. 'someone said' I don't need it, so I removed it from the interface to see if it made any difference. Alas, it did not. So to clarify, with the link-local address in there before (fe80xxx), the problem was exactly the same. Well, I say exactly - I don't have before/after verbose tcpdumps, but the error messages presented were identical. I'll have a play around with it, I don't really want to go to physical for this, so i'm entertaining ideas :) Thanks!
