Ah, ok.
IPv6 is enabled by default on Win Vista/7/8, and W2K8/12.
IPv6 is not enabled by default on most routers, which includes Vyatta (at least up to 6.5 I have played with).
"fe80::" addresses are known as "link-local address", and can only access each other on the local subnet...an fe80:: address CANNOT be routed.
When you ping an "fe80::" address, you must use the form 'ping <target fe80::addr>%<your-ipv6-intf-id>, so from DC do "ping fe80::85a4:9b1c:4809:c0b6%13"
A few relevant books to get:
Guide to TCP/IP, 4th Edition - TCP/IP - both IPv4 & IPv6 covered!!!
IPv6 Fundamentals
Understanding IPv6
fyi, device interfaces can (and generally will) have multiple-valid IPv6 addresses...we don't have that in IPv4. Link-Local addresses are used for comms on local subnet, "Global Unicast Addresses" are used to get "off-net" - but that function will be the client sending to its default gateway's Link-Local addr.......lots of new stuff for you to learn :-)

Dear Jeff,
thank you so much for your answers however one strange behaivor !
why i can RDP to some machine and ping them and others not ?
i can RDP to FS and ping it but not to Ex ? they are on the same subnet behind the same firewall on the same domain,
the only different is i am on different Subnet
ESXI IP is 192.168.2.10 / ISP Modem 192.168.2.254
Vyatta 6.6 with two interfaces eth0 = 192.168.2.50 is configured as DMZ on my ISP router, eth1 = 192.168.4.1
when i am connect with my laptop on my ISP router i can ping the FS just with name and not with IP the reply is Always IPV6 i can RDP to that server but not to others, my laptop is added to the Domain controller 192.168.4.2 but when i map network drive everytime i need to add username and password,
what am i doing wrong?
thank you
