Hi to all, I have bought from ovh a new proxmox server and checking the /var/log/syslog I have discovered that it is full of this message "kernel: IPv6 addrconf: prefix with wrong length 56" ... I have found a document about this problem in this link http://guida.ovh.it/Ipv4Ipv6 but it refers to Debian 5.0 with 2.6.34.6 kernel (Proxmox 2.1 is based on Debian 6.0 with 2.6.32-11-pve kernel).

Have you any idea for fixing this problem?
