To add some more info, IPv6 ping6 doesn't work.
This is on Debian Etch linux 2.6.20 - can anyone tell me what controls the
config for IPv6 here?
adam@isengard:~$ sudo ping6 ::1

PING ::1(::1) 56 data bytes

I also found this while searching:

which sounds useful but I'm not sure why it would work or where it should go.
