I have two IPv6 Nodes on a 10BaseT shared network.  The following are the
interfaces on the segment:

Node A:
eth1      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:60:08:1B:5D:13
          inet addr:192.168.1.1  Bcast:192.168.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::60:81b:5d13/10 Scope:Link
          inet6 addr: 3ffe:1ceb:0:2:10:1:0:1/112 Scope:Global

Node B:
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 08:00:20:0C:FD:4F
          inet addr:192.168.1.2  Bcast:192.168.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::a00:20ff:fe0c:fd4f/10 Scope:Link
          inet6 addr: 3ffe:1ceb:0:2:10:1:0:2/112 Scope:Global

In my routing table, I have made routes that are as such
route -A inet6 add 3ffe:1ceb:0:2:10:1::/112 dev ethX (were X reflects the
device on the network)... In other words, I set it up just like I would
IPv4, which I am guessing is wrong since it doesn't work ;)

The output of ping from Node A to Node B is as such:

PING 6sparc(6sparc) 56 data bytes
>From ip6-localhost: Destination unreachable: Address unreachable
etc...

6sparc is in /etc/hosts and does point to the correct IPv6 identifier of the
node.

Local traffic works fine, infact the tunnel setup for Node A works
wonderfully allowing access to both interfaces from the 6bone on that
machine.  There are no physical network problems, as IPv4 does work
perfectly fine.  There has been no alterations of the MTUs, so IPv6 has the
full 1500 as it not hitting the lower limits.  IPv6 local traffic for Node B
also works without mistake (ping6 ::1, ping6 3ffe:1ceb:0:2:10:1:0:2).

Any help on debugging this or correcting me is appreciated.

Thanks.
