Not getting an IPv6 in a jail

[Major Domo]

Hello list,


Apologies if this has been discussed already but I searched the web
and the mailing lists and haven't found hints on my problem.

I've got a jail, I assign it a set of IP addresses, and it just won't
take the IP6 I give it.


Uname:
FreeBSD 7.2-STABLE


Sysctl jail MIBs:
security.jail.jail_max_af_ips: 255
security.jail.mount_allowed: 0
security.jail.chflags_allowed: 0
security.jail.allow_raw_sockets: 1
security.jail.enforce_statfs: 2
security.jail.sysvipc_allowed: 0
security.jail.socket_unixiproute_only: 1
security.jail.set_hostname_allowed: 0


/etc/rc.conf settings:
jail_enable="YES"
jail_set_hostname_allow="NO"
jail_list="ns"
jail_ns_interface="lo252"
jail_ns_hostname="[snip]"
jail_ns_ip="192.168.0.252,fe80::c0a8:fc"
jail_ns_rootdir="/var/jail/ns"
jail_ns_devfs_enable="YES"

I fail to see what could be going wrong :(

Any pointers please ?
