Hi,

Following on from my first question this morning, I've now got a working IPv6 interface on eri0:1.

The trouble is I want to be able to keep it the same hostname as what is on IPv4 eri0. Is this possible?

lo0: flags=1000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 8232 index 1
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
eri0: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2
inet 192.168.4.222 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.4.255
ether 0:3:ba:1f:bb:91
eri0:1: flags=1000842<BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2
inet 0.0.0.0 netmask 0
lo0: flags=2000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6> mtu 8252 index 1
inet6 ::1/128
eri0: flags=2000841<UP,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6> mtu 1500 index 2
ether 0:3:ba:1f:bb:91
inet6 fe80::203:baff:fe1f:bb91/10
eri0:1: flags=2000841<UP,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6> mtu 1500 index 2
inet6 2001:558:ff10:800:203:baff:fe73:a73f/64
eri0:3: flags=2000840<RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6> mtu 1500 index 2
inet6 ::/0
bash-3.2# ping -A inet6 -i eri0:1 baccipv6
ping: unknown IPv6 host baccipv6
