I loaded the ip6fw module and ipfw is not loaded. I also ran the ip6fw rc script. Nothing happened regarding ipfw. root:0:/cdrom# ip6fw show 65535 0 0 deny ipv6 from any to any root:0:/cdrom# ipfw show ipfw: getsockopt(IP_FW_GET): Protocol not available If you can replicate the problem, please report it.
