IPFW3 and IPv6

[Matthias Play]

Hi Bill,

thanks for your quick answer!

An NFS daemon is running on my server machine which I use to mount DFly 
source and obj dirs on my client machines. With NFS comes mountd and 
rpc* daemons that automatically also provide their service on IPv6 
ports. I did not find daemon flags to tell them only to use IPv4 so I 
would like to block unwanted traffic to these ports.

Would it be ok to also run ip6fw alongside with ipfw3?

If yes, I will set up a configuration file for ip6fw allowing all IPv4 
traffic and blocking all IPv6 traffic.

Regards
Matthias
