Package: iptables
Version: 1.4.2-6
Severity: normal
File: /sbin/ip6tables

Hello,
the man-page of ip6tables says at TARGET EXTENSIONS/REJECT/--reject-with that
icmp-port-unreachable is a valid option. But ip6tables thinks otherwise:

<quote>
hobbes:~# ip6tables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 9898 -j REJECT --reject-with 
icmp-port-unreachable
ip6tables v1.4.2: unknown reject type `icmp-port-unreachable'
Try `ip6tables -h' or 'ip6tables --help' for more information.
</quote>


icmp6-port-unreachable seems to work:

<quote>
hobbes:~# ip6tables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 9898 -j REJECT --reject-with 
icmp6-port-unreachable
hobbes:~#
</quote>

So I guess the man-page needs a correction.

Sincerly,
DaB.
