Hi,
FYI:

FreeBSD src repository
Modified files:
sbin Makefile
sys/conf files options
sys/modules Makefile
sys/net net_osdep.h
sys/netinet ip_fw2.c
sys/netinet6 ip6_forward.c ip6_input.c ip6_output.c
Removed files:
sbin/ip6fw Makefile ip6fw.8 ip6fw.c sample.sh
sys/modules/ip6fw Makefile
sys/netinet6 ip6_fw.c ip6_fw.h
Log:
Remove ip6fw. Since ipfw has full functional IPv6 support now and - in
contrast to ip6fw - is properly locked, it is time to retire ip6fw.
Known issues:
- ipfw2 is *not* a perfect in-place replacement for ip6fw. Rules might
need slight rewriting to work. You can use the changes in rc.firewall6
as a reference. Now that IPv4 and v6 are integrated one should be able
to write much more elegant rulesets to manage both IPv4 and v6.
- rc.firewall6 will flush rules from rc.firewall. I am still looking for
a clever way how to integrate rc.firewall and rc.firewall6 - patches
welcome!
If there are still missing/broken things in ipfw2's IPv6 support, please
let me know.
