DHCPv6 stateful - anyone made it work?

Has anyone actually managed to make DHCPv6 give out an address (or more to 
the point, pick one up at the client)?

I can't find how to set an IP range, let alone get it to give out an 
address, either from server core / netsh, or regular server and GUI.

Alun.

Never mind - I figured it out.

The IP range is the /64 of the scope's address, and to give out the address, 
you have to make sure that the interface has advertise=enabled and 
managed=enabled. Once you do that, it works just fine. Autoconfiguration is 
easier, though. :)

Thanks for your post anyway, I did not know that.
