Hi Petter, hi Mike,

[Petter Reinholdsen]
My guess is that you need to specify the network interface using the %
[Mike Gabriel]
nope, link-local IPv6 addresses are always related to a specific interface. This is btw. not at all Linux related, IMHO. (Or is it?)

The challenge is that fe80:: is always the link-local prefix, for all link-local networks/interfaces on the same host. So, sending packets to a link-local address always requires the outgoing network interface to be specified with the packet send request.

I wasn't aware of that but it makes sense. it worked when I tried to suffix the address with %eth0 and I was able to connect to squid from a workstation.
