Some notes in order of importance:

Note 1:

radvd should run on 2.1.14 (and possibly below, but see note 3) and 2.1.20
(and above). I've tested this release of radvd on 2.1.14 and 2.1.21 (with
Alan's second patch set applied).

Note 2:

You will need the netinet6 header files and the inet6 library from
inet6-apps-0.07 or later which can be found on ftp.inner.net:/pub/ipv6 (or 
ftp.ipv6.inner.net when you're on the 6bone) and many mirrors.

Note 3:

If you're using a kernel version <2.1.20 you must move the definition of
struct ipv6hdr in linux/ipv6.h to the part of the file which is protected
by __KERNEL__. Otherwise you will get errors when compiling radvd.

Note 4:

Support for the "<prefix> length <prefixlength>" syntax in radvd.conf
is gone, now. Please use the new "<prefix>/<prefixlength>" syntax as
documented in radvd.conf(5) and change your configuration files
accordingly.

Note 5:

radvdump is a small program which dumps all received RAs in a human
readable form.

Note 6:

Thanks to Craig Metz this release will hopefully (with small changes) work
with the next release of NRL's IPv6 code.

Installation:

Run configure, e.g.

	LIBS="-L/usr/ipv6/lib" ./configure --prefix=/usr/ipv6

See configure --help for additional command line arguments.

Run make and make install.
