That's because I haven't rebooted....

Let's start fresh.

The normal ipv6 configuration anyone would use:

-ipv6_activate_all_interfaces="YES" in rc.conf

-NO mention of net.inet6.ip6.accept_rtadv in sysctl.conf

I boot up, re0 *does not* have ACCEPT_RTADV.

I try forcing via the sysctl: net.inet6.ip6.accept_rtadv=1

Still doesn't work!

I finally have to result to: ifconfig re0 inet6 accept_rtadv


Why? What makes this machine different? All the other machines I run do  
not require this to get ACCEPT_RTADV. Is it the re driver? My other  
machines have em and ath interfaces.



Thanks,
