Greetings,

Since the upgrade from 4.4 to 4.5 I have problems with my
ipv6-over-v4-tunnel towards the freenet6-servers.

The tunnel-setup goes fine, I can ping everything without a problem.
But when I open an interactive session, after a short time weird
things happen:

The tcp-session itself goes fine, until the moment my machine starts
sending out icmp6 neighbor solicitation requests:

tcp-session setup:

These tcp-packet never gets acknowledged and my packets never get send!

After having done several tests, with ftp, ssh and plain telnet,
everything goes fine until just after the neighbor solicitation.
But icmp-traffic, even large packets as 4Kb, go without a problem.

FreeBSD 4.4 doesn't have this behaviour.

Can somebody please confirm that they have the same, or normal,
behaviour under 4.5 when connecting to an IPv6 enabled site.

Thanks, Edwin
