You can discount any IPv6 addresses with the fe80::/64 prefix, since they are local linkback addresses which appear when you have IPv6 enabled. Discount ::1 as well, it's the IPv6 equivalent of 127.0.0.1 > No, nothing installed... > > Any other hints? Well, if you're not using IPv6 and don't want to use it, you could always disable it. Either unload the ipv6 module by removing it from /etc/modules or disable IPv6 by editing /etc/modules.conf and uncommenting: alias net-pf-10 off Either way, you're going to have to reboot the machine to disable IPv6. -- Conall O'Brien http://www.conall.net GPG Key: http://www.conall.net/gpg/ "Daddy, what does FORMATTING DRIVE C mean?"
