My interface is configured like this: jhay> angel# ifconfig de0 jhay> de0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 jhay> inet 146.64.84.9 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 146.64.84.255 jhay> inet6 fe80::200:e8ff:fe15:dbed%de0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 jhay> inet6 3ffe:2900:fffa:4:200:e8ff:fe15:dbed prefixlen 64 jhay> inet6 3ffe:2900:fffa:4:: prefixlen 64 anycast jhay> ether 00:00:e8:15:db:ed jhay> media: 10baseT/UTP status: active jhay> supported media: 100baseTX <full-duplex> 100baseTX 10base2/BNC 10baseT/UTP <full-duplex> 10baseT/UTP I don't see any configuration problem here. As that machine is a router, anycast address has been assigned. (RFC2373) I simply registered PTR RRs of my anycast addresses into DNS. It may be good idea that sendmail checks for anycast address. -- Hajimu UMEMOTO @ Internet Mutual Aid Society Yokohama, Japan ume@mahoroba.org ume@bisd.hitachi.co.jp ume@FreeBSD.org http://www.imasy.org/~ume/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
