Radvd wlan problems

Hi all,

I am trying to get radvd to broadcast router advertisements on a wireless interface (wlan0).

The wireless interface is running an ad-hoc wireless network. However, for some reason, radvd will say that wlan0 not running and refuse to start.

The only way I can get radvd to broadcast is if wlan0 is connected to a "real wireless network", for example my router.

Any ideas how I can get it to broadcast on a adhoc wireless link?

I am running the latest version (1.6)

Thanks!

NAME
radvdump - dump router advertisements SYNOPSIS
radvdump [ -vhfe ] [ -d debuglevel ] DESCRIPTION
radvdump prints out the contents of incoming router advertisements sent by radvd or some other software implementing (parts of) "Neighbor Discovery for IP Version 6 (IPv6)" (RFC 4861). OPTIONS
For every one character option there is also a long option, which is listed right next to the "short" option name: -v, --version Displays the version of radvdump and then aborts. -h, --help Displays a short usage description and then aborts. -f, --file-format Output received router advertisements in the format of the radvd configuration file. Since radvd 0.9, this is the default and the switch is provided for backward compatibility only. -e, --exclude-defaults Exclude default valued options from configuration file format. This option is ignored if option -f is not set. -d debuglevel, --debug debuglevel With this option you turn on debugging information. The debugging level is an integer in the range from 1 to 4, from quiet to very verbose. A debugging level of 0 completely turns off debugging. The default debugging level is 0. FILES
