(usagi-users 02651) Problems with Routing

[Jedediah Ferguson <jed@xxxxxxxx>]

Hello Users Group:

I have configured a Usagi modified kernel from the last stable source
release (February 14, 2003).  I can't get any IPv6 forwarding to occur. 
The routes are configured on the host machines and the router machine
has IPV6FORWARDING=yes in /etc/sysconfig/network.  Monitoring with
Ethereal I can see traffic directed toward the router destined for
machines on either side but the router simply is not fowarding the
traffic.

Low Quality Network Schematic
	Subnet			Subnet
	fe82::/64		fe81::/64
Host1 ----------  Router  ------------- Host2

Host1 : fe82::2/64
Host2 : fe81::1/64

Router: fe81::3/64
	fe82::4/64

/etc/sysconfig/network

NETWORKING=yes
NETWORKING_IPV6=yes
IPV6INIT=yes
IPV6FORWARDING=yes
HOSTNAME=localhost.localdomain

ff00::/8 dev eth2  proto kernel  metric 256  mtu 1500 advmss 1440
default dev eth1  proto kernel  metric 256  mtu 1500 advmss 1440

Neighbour Table

fe81::1 dev eth1 lladdr 00:05:5d:2d:1f:72 nud stale
fe82::2 dev eth2 lladdr 00:0c:42:02:02:58 nud stale

I am convinced there is something simple I have not done.  The tutorials
I have read indicate that is the routes are present and forwarding is
enabled this should work.

Any assistance would be much appreciated.


Thanks,
