Hello !
We are two students of Italian University !
We work with 2 pc (named : ing209 and ing216) over ATM network (IBM 8285
switch and turboways 25 pci card) with LAN emulation !
We use linux RedHat 5.2 kernel 2.1.126 with modutils 2.1.121 and
glibc2.0.7.
We would to install ipv6 on our linux machines.
We are using the Bieriger's HOWTO !
On ing209 and ing216 we compiled inet6-apps0.34 and
telnet.95.10.23.NE+ipv6-3 without problems (in apparence)
On ing209 we installed net-tools1.50 (with glibc2.0.7)
On ing216 we installed net-tools1.49 (with glibc2.1.111 rpm) and
we configutated interface (in ing216) in this way :
lec0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:04:ac:6c:e8:5c
inet addr:xxx.xxx.xxx.216 Bcast:xxx.xxx.xxx.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe80::204:acff:fe6c:e85c/10 Scope:Link
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets ...............
TX packets ............
collision..............
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.000.000.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:3924 METRIC:1
RX packets.................
TX packets.................
collision .............
When we do (from ing216 to ing216) :
ping fe80::204:acff:fe6c:e85c
we haven't problem !
When we do (from ing209 to ing216) :
ping fe80::204:acff:fe6c:e85c
ing216 goes in kernel panic :-(((( !
Does anyone knows this problem ?
It happens because we work over ATM LAN emulation or other ?
Thanks
