I'm finally getting back to this. 

Hmm. if you uncomment everything in /etc/dnsmasq.conf and restart
dnsmasq what happens? If you have got /64s you would end up doing
slaac and ra announcements via dnsmasq in this case.

That was on by default before (and what was tested in feburary). Later
on 6relayd started having a race with it and seemed to be "the
future", so I disabled the dnsmasq version, thinking that 6relayd was
the answer. It's entirely possible that's
merely configured wrong.

Now I get global /64's on my LAN interfaces, but I am still not answering dhcp6 for attached hosts.  I retried both version of the 6relayd init script....

dnsmasq.conf contains:
enable-ra                                                                                                      
dhcp-range=::1,::400,constructor:se00,ra-names,ra-stateless  
dhcp-range=::1,::400,constructor:sw00,ra-names,ra-stateless  
dhcp-range=::1,::400,constructor:gw00,ra-names,ra-stateless          
dhcp-range=::1,::400,constructor:sw10,ra-names,ra-stateless  
dhcp-range=::1,::400,constructor:gw10,ra-names,ra-stateless


I am running: Linux cerowrt 3.10.24 #1 Tue Dec 24 10:50:15 PST 2013..... which might be just a bit too fresh....  Would you suggest another?

I have a spare 3700, so I think I will try some alternate vintages.

Thanks,

Getting to names from dhcpv4 to slaac was a neat hack and a potential
RFC. So i figure spending the time to add the same functionality into
into something other than dnsmasq would be useful towards writing that
rfc.
