Re: Re: Re: IPv6 enabled Network services

Dr.Peter,

I'm able to ping (using ping6) from both the machines.

But, when i perform telnet, in machine-1 with Linux version 
2.4.18-3smp gcc version 2.96, Red Hat Linux 7.3, i get

# telnet fe80::2b0:d0ff:fed2:65ff
Trying fe80::2b0:d0ff:fed2:65ff
telnet: connect to address fe80::2b0:d0ff:fed2:65ff: Invalid 
argument

And the machine-2 with Linux version 2.4.18-14 (gcc version 3.2
20020903 (Red Hat Linux 8.0 3.2-7), i get

#telnet fe80::250:daff:fed2:d90e
fe80::250:daff:fed2:d90e: Unknown host

In case, if i need to upgrade telnet, ftp, etc, suggest me where i 
can find them. Any docs for the same.
looking forward for ur help

Hi Marc
i tried for
telnet> 3ffe::102:304:1234
still i get
3ffe::102:304:1234: unknown host

Can you ping6 this address? Are the shown addresses configured 
in
real or are they rewritten for public ML posting?

They look a little bit strange to me.

Also try
$ telnet <ipv6address>

perhaps this kind will work.

If not, telnet has perhaps no IPv6 support (which version/RPM do 
you
use)? Check also
$ which telnet
to be sure you're using the right one.

Grmmml, read FAQ in HowTo: do not use link-local addresses for normal
purposes, they won't work because of the scoping issue. Configure and
use site-local instead.
