Hi Ville, Thanks, with your latest ip6_tunnel.c everything is working fine. of course I found a new topic where problems could be: radvd can send packets on unicast tunnels, too. so auto configuration should be possible even via the tunnel? with tcpdump on the sending side I can see: 14:41:57.875956 fe80::209:5bff:fe2f:ea7e > ff02::16: HBH (rtalert: 0x0000) (padn)icmp6: type-#206 [hlim 1] (len 36) 14:41:58.884853 fe80::209:5bff:fe2f:ea7e > ff02::16: HBH (rtalert: 0x0000) (padn)icmp6: type-#206 [hlim 1] (len 36) 14:42:10.705953 fe80::209:5bff:fe2f:ea7e > ff02::16: HBH (rtalert: 0x0000) (padn)icmp6: type-#206 [hlim 1] (len 36) 14:42:11.717831 fe80::209:5bff:fe2f:ea7e > ff02::16: HBH (rtalert: 0x0000) (padn)icmp6: type-#206 [hlim 1] (len 36) but I'm not receiving anything. It could be a problem with ipv4, ipsec, radvd software or anything like that, I'm trying to build a pure v6 setup, so I can test properly. btw: I saw one kernel panic with ip6 tunnel and xfrm in the call trace (but I don't have a copy and it was incomplete anyway), so there could be some proplem left. But could be in xfrm. Andreas - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
