Hello again from Gregg C Levine I have. That interface, is part of support for IPv6, in Linux. Only on Linux/i386 as it happens.
So far, your "ifconfig" output looks perfectly normal. From my point of view. However, how come your eth0 interface does not have an IP address to call its own? ------------------- Gregg C Levine [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------ "The Force will be with you...Always."
