I've got a NetBSD box (oleary) acting as a 6bone gateway here, and one
of my co-workers installed Winsock 5 (I think) on his Win98 box, to
see what it would do.  When it tries to auto-configure its IPv6
address, I get:

Jul 14 09:04:58 oleary /netbsd: nd6_rs_input: invalid ND option, ignored
Jul 14 09:04:58 oleary rtadvd[11039]: <nd6_options> bad ND option length(0) (type = 248)

Anybody know what ND stands for, or what an ND option of type 248 is?

Anyway, the result of this is apparently that the Win machine fails to
get an IPv6 address.  However, it could just be that Winsock is really
buggy.
