Well, "print-icmp6.c" appears to have code to handle neighbor solicitation; however, the IPv6 code is compiled into tcpdump only if INET6 is defined, and I think you have to explicitly request that by supplying "--enable-ipv6" to the configure script. I think that may even be the case if your OS has an IPv6 stack that tcpdump can use. Ethereal's IPv6 support is compiled in regardless of whether you have IPv6 support in the OS or not - it may not be able to look up IPv6 addresses and translate them to host names, but it'll at least dissect IPv6 and ICMPv6 packets. Can anybody think of a reason why tcpdump shouldn't do the same? - This is the TCPDUMP workers list.
