Hello,

I am looking for someone who is 'responsible' for the lnc network
driver and/or who knows, how to enable the multicast support for it.

It is already partially enabled by defining LNC_MULTICAST, but the
reception of multicast packets still seems to be impossible.

The problem: we run a PCI-Ethernet adapter and want to test the
IPv6 Implementation currently available from KAME.

lnc1: <PCNet/PCI Ethernet adapter> rev 0x25 int a irq 18 on pci0.17.0
lnc1: PCnet-FAST address 00:60:b0:??:??:??

Since IPv6 relies on Multicast (Address configuration) IPv6 is usable only
if the interface is set into promiscuous mode (e.g. by tcpdump) 

I would be happy if someone could help!


Michael
