problems with creating tunnel

[Jorg de Jong <j.e.s.de.jong@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I am justs starting to fool around with ipv6. 
(Dont you just love mails like this ;-) )

And of cource I have a problem:

I requested a tunnel from freenet6 and the command in the file the send are:
       ifconfig sit0 up
       ifconfig eth0 add 3ffe:b00:c18:1fff:0:0:0:559
       ifconfig sit0 tunnel ::206.123.31.102
       ifconfig sit1 up
       route -A inet6 add default gw fe80::206.123.31.102 dev sit1

during the creation of the tunnel I get :
[root] /root > ifconfig sit0 tunnel ::206.123.31.102
SIOCSIFDSTADDR: No buffer space available

Not good I asume. On the various web pages I tried to look 
for pointer where to find information on how to solve this problem,
but did not find any usfull info.

My box is running 2.4.0-test6

If someone needs more info, say the word and I will 
try to get it....

Thanks for your help,

Jorg de Jong
