Hi Bruno,

After setting up the same ipv6-address on the host system it works
fine.... thanks for the help (and the patch in the first place)!

The documentation on http://linux-vserver.org/IPv6 however suggest that
with version 0.30.212 it will be done all automagically when added to the
interface configuration of the vserver (like there isn't a difference
between ipv4 and 6 in configuration). With just ipv4 I didn't have to add
the quest ip address to the host like I needed to do with ipv6.

Thanks,
Eddy
