Discussion about same subject[1]. Are you trying to test this from Debian
machine? There is easy way to be sure[2], but this solution might cast different
problems.

Thanks henri, I hoped there is an pcap programm for this. I was already to manupulate the return code in 2.6 (to not return EMSGSIZE), so ping6 would never notice a "Message too long".

Oh and yes: I'm doing it on debian. So no need for this win32-installer ;)
