I didn't see this in 2.6.8.1 nor in 2.6.8.1-mm1. This is a plain ipv6-over-ipv4 tunnel like this: /etc/network/interfaces: auto xs6all iface xs6all inet6 v4tunnel endpoint xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx up ip route add 2000::0/3 via xxx:xxx:xxx:xxx:xxx:xxx address xxx:xxx:xxx:xxx:xxx:xxx netmask 64 up ip tunnel change xs6all ttl 64 I'm running Debian Unstable with all the latest updates as of today. Thanks for any hints, Jurriaan -- If an elderly but distinguished scientist says that something is possible he is almost certainly right, but if he says that it is impossible he is very probably wrong.
