    I have a very strange situation. I have an NT station and a Solaris =
station, both with IPv6. The Solaris station has generated the automatic =
address and is working perfectly with it. The NT station has generated =
many new interfaces with 2 different addresses types. One which uses the =
eui-64, another which is backward compatible with v4 address ( =
fe80::ipv4). Also, it generated another one which is( ::ipv4). below is =
the output of the 'ipv6 if' command.
    However, neither of these addresses are working. One is pinging from =
the inside but not from the outside ( ::163.121.25.3), another from the =
outside but not from the inside(from the Solaris, not from another =
NTv6).=20
    Does anyone have an explanation for that???
