Actually I don’t really know. The ifconfig output on the 64bit
machine, where it does not work, is:

This 64bit machine is my router/gateway.
On the 32bit machine, where it does work, the ifconfig output is:

mike@linux:/etc/sysconfig$
Does it matter that no inet6 addr is listed for the dsl0 interface
on my gateway (the 64bit machine)?
I found that there is a variablee IPV6_FORWARD in
/etc/sysconfig/sysctl:
mike@nozomi:/etc/sysconfig$ grep -i ipv6 sysctl
# Runtime-configurable parameter: forward IPv6 packets.
IPV6_FORWARD="yes"
# Runtime-configurable parameter: use temporary IPv6 addresses
IPV6_PRIVACY=no
IPV6_MLD_VERSION=""
mike@nozomi:/etc/sysconfig$
This variable was set to "no" on both machines, I have just now
set it to "yes" on the 64bit machine.
