But should both protocols be implemented in the same server? It is my understanding that sockets belonging to different families are created with the help of translators hooked on /servers/sock/<PF_FAMILY> where PF_FAMILY is the number representing a particular socket domain like INET, LOCAL, IPX, INET6, etc. So shouldn't there be a separate pfinet6 server?
