Ping IPv6 ONLY ?

[keith.jamieson@bt.com]

To All

I have set up 
1) my Sun Ultra 10 with Solaris 7 and the IPv6 patches, from the playground.
2) the /etc/hosts and /etc/hosts6 to include all hosts on my subnet.
3) the DNS server with IPv6 hosts
4) the /etc/nsswitch.conf for files then dns for hosts and hosts6

I can
1) Ping IPv6 address longhand ( ping ::1 , ping
fec0:f1::a00:20ff:fxxx.xxxx.xxxx )
2) nslookup, set q=aaaa and enter host names and get IPv6 address returned.

I cannot
1) ping hostname
2) telnet hostname
3) ftp .........

PLEASE - Can anyone help ?

Is the sun package for IPv4 and IPv6 or is it just IPv6 ? - I think the
former, suspect that the lower lying libraries are IPv4 only.
