Sure, all I did was to add NETWORKING_IPV6=yes to /etc/sysconfig/network and then I ran /sbin/service network restart. Then init.ipv6-global complained about a missing ipv6_test. I symlinked /bin/true to /bin/ipv6_test to see if that's all, but then it bombed with lots of errors about ipv6_exec_ip et al. I guess those should all be defined in network-functions-ipv6, but according to CVSWeb, network-functions-ipv6 is older (10 months, last log "merge rh 6.40.2") than init.ipv6-global (2 months, last log "rh 6.87").
If it works for you, does init.ipv6-global use ipv6_test or test_ipv6? If the former, where does it get that function from? Regards, -Malte
