We don't have "+" something. It is foo or -foo but not +foo. I know that inet6 is already used for the regular addresses, but +inet6 sounds like an inconsistent workaround for a workaround. I don't like it. To "enable IPv6" link-local I would rather prefer two options to put either "inet6 eui64" (or an alias like "inet6 link-local") or an actual inet6 address in your hostname.if. The latter should automatically remove the flag and enable the link-local address - does it work this way? Reyk
