Yes, it helps. Thanks.

I think there is a bug in the implementation. I'll ask the ipfw people.

Not saying that this is not a bug, but keep in mind
that there is no ip6fw in RELENG_7. IPv6 filtering
is integrated in ipfw. I think you better ask ipfw@
for opinions and workarounds before filing a PR.

Sorry I forgot to mention that this is on 7.0-BETA1.

I find that it only happens the first time I enable the firewall after
rebooting. I remove the firewall_enable and ipv6_firewall_enable lines
in rc.conf, reboot the system, then put the lines back in rc.conf.
Then /etc/rc.d/ip6fw start also starts ipfw.

I'm pretty sure that when this happens, ipfw doesn't load its rules
from /etc/rc.firewall, so it is running with only the default deny
rule (I'll try to confirm that some time today, but first I need to
get some real work done this morning).

After the firewall has been enabled and disabled, re-enabling ip6fw
doesn't seem to affect ipfw.

Since this is apparently a bug, I'll file a PR. I'm going to install
7.0-BETA2 later today, I'll try again on that.

Can't replicate what you said. I am running 6.2-STABLE from June.
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.
