Remember: Linux does not allow autoconfiguration and routing at the same time, without any good reason. The only reason I've seen so far is that the Terminology in an RFC vaguely distinguishes between router machines and nodes. If you believe that Linux is correct here the way it is, just tell me how to solve that problem with Linux. best regards Hadmut
