Title: IPV6
Post by: andyj on September 26, 2019, 09:01:52 PM

On TC 10, I have ipv6-4.19.10-tinycore64 loaded at boot, and lsmod shows ipv6 loaded, but neither busybox nor gnu ifconfig know about inet6:

Code: [Select]

ifconfig: inet6 is not a supported address family

What else do I need to do, or what am I doing wrong?

Try installing iana-etc. Otherwise not sure, maybe stracing your ifconfig call would show something.

Part of the problem is that busybox ifconfig syntax != gnu ifconfig syntax != net-tools ifconfig syntax, which confuses third-party scripts. Iproute2 is a little old, but it provides ip which works for make check for bind.
