In your previous mail you wrote: Thanks Francis, this is starting to make sense. But why would it work on Linux, but not on Windows? Let me see what I can find out about this .... => link-local addresses within scope 0 work on some OSs with some setups (the idea is to catch old or poorly written applications). I am afraid Windows is strict about this (IMHO this is the good option) and Linux with the particular configuration uses a "default interface". But on a not-fully buggy IPv6 on Linux (perhaps this exists :-), the Java program should fail as soon as a non-zero "scope ID" (I prefer the better term "zone ID" but it is too late to change this) is needed, i.e., at least with link-local addresses or non-global multicast.
Thanks [EMAIL PROTECTED] PS: if the IPv6 support is ported to a KAME BSD, let try the link-local with zero scope ID with ipv6_default_interface set to NO (the default) in /etc/rc.conf. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The IPv6 Users Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending "unsubscribe users" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
