On coyote, it'll look something like line 3:
$ ifconfig -a
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:31:20:c2:5f:5e
inet addr:192.168.1.2 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe81::231:19ff:fea1:4f4e/64 Scope:Link
...
But if in doubt, set it to something you like, then add it to /etc/hosts on
the others, I figure. (Haven't yet fussed with IPV6, myself.)
Erik
P.S. Yes, there's doubtless an "ip" way to show addresses too. BMG.

And most think it needs at least one trip less thru the horse. :) We'll drink one while I'm showing off my mess in the garage. I don't have real estate enough to build a bigger one, and a 14x24 has just one trail thru it about 2 to 3 feet wide.

A quick google of "linux static ipv6 address howto" gave some promising looking hits. I liked the look of the third hit: https://kb.wisc.edu/ns/page.php?id=14099 While the example is aimed at a specific site, it shows the files to be edited, and IIUC, FE80 is for local addressing, like ipv4 non-routable address ranges, so it should be generally applicable, I figure. The tutorial in the second hit: https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/ubuntu-ipv6-networking-configuration/ might be worth a try next, using an FE80 address, I figure. Use your google foo, Gene! There's so much chaff out there, and life's too short to be sorting the wheat out with tweezers. Erik

But what if the address you're using has 3 duplicates "out there"? But who or what is the gatekeeper to make sure the address you choose, supposedly at random, isn't in use someplace next door or half the planet away? There may be some sort of an enforcement in ipv6, but I've not heard of it. That doesn't mean it doesn't exist, just that if it does, I've never read about it. I'd like to read an informed discusson of how that is supposed to work. > P.S. Yes, there's doubtless an "ip" way to show addresses too. BMG. yes, ip a and ip r for showning route. I have learn that much about ip. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.

I'd be a little surprised if WVU and the town > around it did not support ipv6 (although maybe no external (to WVU) > ISPs support it). Morgantown is 40+ miles up the superslab from here. We have very poorly maintained dsl from frontier, or nearly any bandwidth you can afford from shentel, the cable tv folks. After being without a phone the first 5 months of 2013 because vz wouldn't fix anything, I voted with my wallet and switched it all to the cable. We've been w/o a phone or net for maybe 3 weeks after bad storms that took the whole county down and we listened to our 20kw nat gas in the back yard because all the batteries were dead. Old ipv4 only Arris modems and I've not toted any ipv6 stuffs in dd-wrt in my router either. With no configuration support for ipv6 available here on this list (I have asked, thinking I'd make my local net ipv6, but that would take a 6 to 4 nat in the router), I've nuked it out of all my network configs as my local net with several hundred feet of cat5 and 6 seems stuck at 100 Mb, plenty fast enough for me. I'll have to reconfigure it all from scratch if and when it arrives here, but at my age, 84, I'll probably miss roll call first and it will be somebody else's problem, I'm running on a battery now. The doc says the battery is good for ten years, but there are other problems that will stop me before then I suspect.
