You got me on that one ;-)

Ok, so I add another one : does ipfw support IPv6 stateful filtering ?
Yes, ipfw can filter IPv6 packets, but :
- reading the source, it seems to me that ip6fw doesn't have his IPv4
counterpart's stateful additions.
- the source is not in the same file, which imply that the two
filters might not have the same behaviour / possibilities.
- if any, where are those differences documented ?

And yes, the ipfilter shipped in fbsd-4.2 isn't configured to filter
IPv6. I don't know exactly why, but the patch is in ipfilter's 3.4.14
distribution.
