Hi William, Thanks a lot for your response. Mozilla allows me to specify the %zone_id (scope_id) in the HTTP request but as mentioned by you, it updates in "Host:" header field in HTTP request. Regards, Sathya On Fri, May 8, 2009 at 12:37 PM, William A. Rowe, Jr. wrote: > sathya sai wrote: >

There's some confusion here as to just what is problematic. A link-local address works just fine without a scope-id. So those suggesting a modification of the address need to ask, not "do you need to use a link-local address," but, "do you need to specify a scope-id?" Because the address parsing

Request had reached the apache & I could see that apache logs "Client sent malformed Host header" error message in error_log. Then apache sends "400 Bsd Request" to the server. It would be really helpful if I would get a sure confirmation that link local Ipv6 address is not supported with apache

Am not sure of RFC deprecation though i have a slightest remembrance of hearing it somewhere. About, Global, i don know how u can create one. What are the IPaddresses your ipconfig gives? there are a lot of IPv6 addresses it will display when you say ipconfig /all. Dont u see any other Ipv6 address
