Package: telnet Version: 0.17-35 I am trying to establish ipv6 connection to a machine using local-link interface. ping6 works: # ping6 -I eth0 fe80::240:63ff:fec6:d69 PING fe80::240:63ff:fec6:d69(fe80::240:63ff:fec6:d69) from fe80::250:bfff:fedb:6816 eth0: 56 data bytes 64 bytes from fe80::240:63ff:fec6:d69: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=2.58 ms ...
telnet over ipv4 works. But using ipv6 address is not working: # telnet -6 [fe80::240:63ff:fec6:d69] telnet: could not resolve [fe80::240:63ff:fec6:d69]/telnet: Name or service not known # telnet -6 fe80::240:63ff:fec6:d69 Trying fe80::240:63ff:fec6:d69... telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Invalid argument The machine has only single network card with interface eth0. -- Arie
