Hi,

I'm trying to upgrade to Linux 2.5.x from 2.4.x. It seems to be working
fine, except for IPv6: a TCP session can be established, but I can't send
data. I can receive it though.

I can confirm this. 2.5.65 can connect to other hosts out there, like ipv6
irc servers, or an IPv6 zonetransfer. However, when I try to ssh from 2.5.65
to another 2.5.65, nothing happens.

2.4.18 can also ssh to 2.5.65.

So we have:

       to:	2.4.18	2.5.65
from:
2.4.18		  OK     OK
2.5.65  	  OK     ERROR


tcpdump from 2.5.65 to 2.5.65:

The originating host does not ACK the received data, it appears. No IPSEC
is involved with this.
