(usagi-users 01478) Re: IPv6 configuration on SuSE 8.0



Thanks for the direction....I went ahead and emailed Andi Kleen of SuSE,
who is also a network maintainer, on this.  Hopefully he'll get back to me
with some info.

Me (author of RHL IPv6-scriptset) not, sorry. Earlier, they had a
rudimentary setup by rc.config.

Probably they miss all the hooks and the IPv6 library.

As current starting point, take a look at

http://www.bieringer.de/linux/IPv6/IPv6-HOWTO/scripts/current/index.h
tml

and take latest snapshot

ftp://ftp.bieringer.de/pub/linux/IPv6/initscripts/testing/IPv6-initsc
ripts-20020420.tar.gz

and try to apply the diffs shown in RHL 6.2.


Can anyone point me to the initscript-RPM of SuSE 8.0 for
downloading?  Perhaps I can provide diffs for testing.
