Unfortunately this IPv6 addressing scheme isn't portable. Windows Vista will create link local addresses which are completely random, not based on the MAC address. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/2007.08.cableguy.aspx I wonder if there's a way todo something more clever for IPv6 to learn the addresses, we as do for IPv4 address learning, or snoop route advertisment traffic as we do for DHCP Regards, Daniel -- |: http://berrange.com -o- http://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: http://entangle-photo.org -o- http://live.gnome.org/gtk-vnc :|
