Radvd sender configures itself (but shouldn't)...

Hi,

I've once again a question concerning radvd.

I have a PC with 2 network interfaces, on one of them it is a radvd
client, on the other it shall act as a radvd router for the connected
subnetwork. Furthermore, I have the Mobile IPv6 daemon from the
University of Helsinki running on running the PC. That's why I'm
running a 2.6.8.1 kernel wih the corresponding patch.

The first interface is very well configured as a client interface.

The problem I have is that when I activate radvd on the second
interface, it creates a default route to its own link-local address,
where all arriving packets are routed to... :-( I.e. it accepts and
parses its own RAs. At the beginning, the interface also created a
stateless address for itself, but then I set eth1/autoconf to 0 and
this problem was solved. However, the new route seems to be the bigger
problem... Is there any similar variable (accept_ra, accept_redirect,
....) that could solve my problem? I tried a lot of combinations and
settings (perhaps not all of them), but nothing worked so far. Has
anybody ever has this kind of problem?

When the Mobile IP daemon is not running everything goes fine.

I would greatly appreciate any answer or hint!

Tobias
