[expert] Ipv6 support

[IPv6 project]

Hi all,
I was told that Mandrake 8.0 is IPv6 enabled. However, I can not use it to 
implement IPv6 !!!.I guess to have IPv6 enabled is not enough to directly 
use it.  What should I do to get IPv6 working, any additional patches that I 
should run?. any body can help ?

Regards
Gadir

Hi,

Does LM 7.2 have ipv6 support built in? I mean, the net tools (i.e. ifconfig, 
ping, traceroute, nslookup, etc...) and the kernel have ipv6 support? and if 
not where can I get ipv6-enabled packages for mandrake?

thanks.

IPv6 can be compiled into any 2.2.x kernel I believe, but it most 
definitely exists in LM 7.2.  It will require a recompile, finding Alexy 
Kuznetsov's packages for iputils, the new net-tools from Phil Blundell, 
and so on.  Try checking out www.bieringer.de/linux/IPv6/index.html or 
www.bieringer.de/linux/IPv6/status/IPv6+Linux-status-conf.html .
Peter Bieringer's site has how-tos as well as the status of various ports 
and projects dealing with bringin IPv6 to LInux. 

Hope this helps
