Do not enforce IPv6! Last time I enforce it on end users was a mess, really, I was an IPv6 enthusiast until I had to step back and turn it off. DJ Bernstein and others were plain right: http://weblog.kernelcode.com/2010/02/25/ipv6-is-a-failure-stop-wasting-everyones-time/ - Otto (solca) Solares

In my opinion, that should be okay, but I'm also using IPv6 regularly. What would be the alternative, installing the bridge as a kernel module instead of kernel built-in as it is currently done? Hmm, if no one is screaming about any space issues and not wanting to have IPv6 installed, I guess it s
