Are all the clients Linux? If so, then you can get away with using the RDNSS option in radvd.conf and rdnssd on the clients. Don't know if other OSes support RFC5006 yet. It's only 5 years old, so I guess we cannot expect that. I'd recommend using the RDNSS option in any case, to support the clients which can use it. > I tried using wide-dhcpv6-server and failed to get it to work on multiple > interfaces on > the same machine which does not seem to work.

Don't know much about these things, but I believe there has been a few IPv6 related patches on the NM list recently. This is most likely WIP. > Another thing would be resolvconf - Is it v6 aware? The wide dhcpv6 client will provide a $new_domain_name_servers variable to a shell script of your choice, so it should be easy to fix. I don't think the ISC client supports any sort of scripting for IPV6 yet, but I could be wrong. rdnssd recommends resolvconf, so I expect it supports it.
