Shifting it to 40 would probably fix your ipv6 related bug, I guess.
There are some settings that need to be set before the interfaces come online, I'm not sure of the specifics but I do know these keys are out there and they do need to be set before networking starts. Ideally there probably should be some sort of runlevel type sysctl setup, that's going to be fiddly and not trivial to write, but not impossible either. My worry is that we move it, you're happy, people who have similiar problems to you are happy but then suddenly another group of people spring up with "hey, why did you move sysctl, you broke my system now" - Craig -- Craig Small GnuPG:1C1B D893 1418 2AF4 45EE 95CB C76C E5AC 12CA DFA5 http://www.enc.com.au/ csmall at : enc.com.au http://www.debian.org/ Debian GNU/Linux, software should be Free -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
