MikaelA7200Inf3#show ipv6 neighbors MikaelA7200Inf3# No neighbours due to no activity for 8+ hours (I rebooted with 2.6.26-5-generic last night, tried it again this morning (4-6 hours without activity, still worked, then I tried it now after 8+ hours of inactivity and it didn't work)) and the status after trying to send pings from the linux box was the following:

I didn't have this problem with a kernel.org 2.6.26.3 that I compiled myself and ran for 38 days on hardy. Could it be firewall related? I haven't done any configuration on anything like Apparmour or anything like that, so I'm running default settnigs in aspect to any firewall related applications. -- ipv6 stops working after a while https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/263260 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
