Hi Brian,

thanks for your help..i got the Ipv6 ppp working now with the latest version of ppp 
from your site

But i encountered another problem, on freebsd 4.4-stable, you cannot
use ifconfig to point to a destination address like below

ifconfig tun0 inet6 3ffe:1800:100:1::1 prefixlen 48 3ffe:1800:100:1::2 prefixlen 48

do you know why?

Another question...

is there anyway of controlling ipv6 address and routes in ppp.conf when using auto 
mode demand dialing...??

thanks,

Kim chua
