I have a remote server, configured with a working IPv6 address

        ip -6 addr show dev eth0 | grep XYZW
                inet6 2600:...:XYZW:...::1/64 scope global 

I have a working IPv4 OpenVPN server config on this machine; it is up & 
running, allowing a connection from my local client.

I want to configure the tunnel to provide IPv6 inside the tunnel,

        
https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/IPv6#ProvidingIPv6insidethetunnel

I added to the existing config

        tun-ipv6
        push tun-ipv6
        ifconfig-ipv6  2600:...:XYZW:...::1/64 2600:...:XYZW:...::2/64

When I (re)start the OpenVPN server, it fails with

        Aug 18 13:36:41 test openvpn[19239]: Options error: ifconfig-ipv6 parms 
'2600:...:XYZW:...::1/64' and '2600:...:XYZW:...::2/64' must be valid addresses
        Aug 18 13:36:41 test openvpn[19239]: Use --help for more information.

What's 'invalid' to openvpn about those valid IPs?

This is with

        openvpn --version
