Why is this? 

If I run "rtsol ne0" manually after starting "rtadvd ne0", it works just
fine. It's only /etc/rc that prevents me from doing so, and I don't know
why.

Um, I got a /48 from the operation center of the german educational

didn't protest, so I assumed they know what they do. ;) I guess we can
switch to some other address later...
