First of all, see bug 677251. It is fixed, but. When you don't have any (root) filesystems mounted over the network, either edit /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0 and change STARTMODE= nfsroot to STARTMODE=auto or set is via "yast2 lan", but update it first :-) Further, when there is a "/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-" file, remove it. The "nfsroot" setting causes, that "ifdown eth0" basically has no effect (IPs are never removed). You seem not to have DHCPv6 on your network (autoconf only): at the moment it is better to set BOOTPROTO="dhcp4" instead of just "dhcp". The later starts also a dhcpv6 client what slows down the setup. Further, IPV6_PRIVACY is DEPRECATED and usually does not work (see https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=704981#c2 and references). You have to configure the settings in /etc/sysctl.conf or even better in the /etc/sysconfig/network/ifsysctl file. Last but not least, to use your statically assigned IP in outgoing connections (see it on the web-site): - disable autoconf (net.ipv6.conf.eth0.autoconf=1) so your static IPv6 address is used - and/or configure as described in /usr/src/linux/Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt: net.ipv6.conf.eth0.use_tempaddr - INTEGER Preference for Privacy Extensions (RFC3041). <= 0 : disable Privacy Extensions == 1 : enable Privacy Extensions, but prefer public addresses over temporary addresses. > 1 : enable Privacy Extensions and prefer temporary addresses over public addresses. Default: 0 (for most devices) -1 (for point-to-point devices and loopback devices) [this is the IPV6_PRIVACY setting]. <--- Alternative approach is to use DHCPv6 server (dhcp-server package) and assign a fixed IP address to the client, but you also have to reconfigure your router (it will not work without!). When the router is a linux system using radvd, see "man radvd.conf"; the settings you would have to change are: AdvManagedFlag on; # <-- use DHCPv6 AdvOtherConfigFlag on; # <-- also other settings like DNS prefix 2001:980:4480:1::/64 { AdvAutonomous off; # <-- don't allow clients to configure # IP address via stateless autoconf }; ---> I'm resolving it as INVALID, because using static address for outgoing connections is a configuration issue (on the router or on the host) and differs from (kernel / our) defaults and we don't provide "1 click" way to configure it. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
