Can someone provided me with a few pointers on getting ipv6 addresses working 
with JSch?

I'm starting off with link-local address (fe80::)

The target machine has this ipv6 address:  fe80::218:f8ff:fe0b:554b%eth0

So I've tried to connect using both:  fe80::218:f8ff:fe0b:554b  and  
fe80::218:f8ff:fe0b:554b%eth0  (with and without
the scope id / inf)

What I end up with is the following errors:

    ERROR: com.jcraft.jsch.JSchException java.net.ConnectException: failed to 
connect to /fe80::218:f8ff:fe0b:554b (port
    22): connect failed: EINVAL (Invalid argument)

    ERROR: com.jcraft.jsch.JSchException java.net.UnknownHostException: Unable 
to resolve host
    "fe80::218:f8ff:fe0b:554b%eth0": No address associated with hostname

I am able to ping6 the address%inf:

    $ ping6 fe80::218:f8ff:fe0b:554b%eth0
    PING fe80::218:f8ff:fe0b:554b%eth0(fe80::218:f8ff:fe0b:554b) 56 data bytes
    64 bytes from fe80::218:f8ff:fe0b:554b: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.380 ms
    64 bytes from fe80::218:f8ff:fe0b:554b: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.233 ms
    64 bytes from fe80::218:f8ff:fe0b:554b: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.284 ms

I am also able to login using openssh from the command line:

    $ ssh xxxxxxxx@fe80::218:f8ff:fe0b:554b%eth0
    Last login: Fri Nov 29 14:00:42 2013 from fe80::a2e:5fff:fe74:9e8d%eth0
    $

But I have not been able to figure a way to get JSch to connect successfully 
using ipv6.
