I'm working in a local network with no internet connection, what I'm trying to do is to connect an ipv6 network with an ipv4 network using an address translator from the MIT. The translator asks for an ipv4-mapped ipv6 address when comunicating an ipv6 node with a ipv4 node in the other network, where the ipv4 address of the ipv4-mapped ipv6 address is the address of the ipv4 node. For example, if I want to ping 172.25.79.152 from 3ffe:1ce1:2:0:200::1 I have to do ping6 ::ffff:172.25.79.152, and the address translator would do the translation and send the translated packet to 172.25.79.152. I configured sit0 like this: DEVICE="sit0" BOOTPROTO="none" ONBOOT="yes" IPV6INIT="yes" IPV6TUNNELIPV4="172.25.79.152" #the machine behind the translator IPV6TUNNELIPV4LOCAL="172.25.79.156" #the ipv4 address of the translator If I ping6 to the ipv4mapped ipv6 address I get this: [root@gt64 network-scripts]# ping6 ::ffff:172.25.79.152 ping: bind icmp socket: Cannot assign requested address Thanks, -- Juan Luis Baptiste M. email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.merlinux.org ------------------------------------------------------ Todas las noticias de Linux y el mundo Open Source las encuentras en Merlinux - http://www.merlinux.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- The IPv6 Users Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending "unsubscribe users" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
