You probably don't want to do this. Most (all?) IPv6 implementations special-case IPv4-mapped addresses and may not let such addresses be assigned to native interfaces or added to the routing table. IPv4-compatible addresses are likely to be obsoleted soon, as they aren't as useful as everyone thought they would be. -Nathan -- +-------------------+---------------------+------------------------+ | Nathan Lutchansky | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Lithium Technologies | +------------------------------------------------------------------+ | I dread success.
