Well, obviously. That's _why_ I want to deploy IPv6 and get it tested. But I used to be able to do this without actually breaking the network, and without being told to _stop_ running radvd because it breaks things. > Other than fixing the applications that only take the first response > (isn't that a generic application bug going back nearly decades now? > amazing how things stay the same isn't it) Can you run a caching-only > name server at the edge that filters-out the IPv6 responses so your > systems never see Global IPV6 responses? I don't think that kind of answer is going to be sufficient to persuade Uli to switch back from favouring IPv4 over IPv6. That's done the trick, admittedly -- by ensuring that we get _no_ testing of IPv6 unless we run with IPv6-only networking :) -- dwmw2 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
