 !!!Internal machines don't add a 2000::/3 route 
 Internal machines upon getting a router advertisement under linux add a default gateway to a router. All fine and well, until you realise that [IPv6] doesn't use default routers and you needed a route to 2000::/3 instead. Sigh.

+!!!Adding IPv6 addresses to the wrong interfaces  
+  
+I recently set-up IPv6 again on my linux box. My linux box would happily talk to the outside world using IPv6 but my internal network machines couldn't. Took me a while to realise that I had configured radvd to use eth0 and also had given my first IPv6 address (::1) to eth0. Change these both to eth2 (which faces my internal network) and everything works fine.

 [2]: I like that word. It just sounds neat. More people should use it.
