Isn't it the autoconfigured address you expect to get from an > "auto" stanza ? Sorry for the confusion. I expected to get a autoconfigured address in the prefix the router got from the isp, not in a ULA one I created myself. However, it's starting to look like the router actually does advertise the ULA as well (I thought it didn't), so that's probably correct behaviour. >>> Does that suggest a bug in ifupdown?

I didn't find anywhere in the man page that said the order of my stanzas was important - I assumed they were entirely independent of each other. >> I can also make it work by adding 'autoconf 1' to the static stanza, and >> omitting the auto stanza. > > This is the right way to go. And it's the way I'm going. It just appears that the idea of using one stanza per ip address (or at least per prefix) doesn't seem to work consistently. Cheers, Richard
