I'm running pf w/ IPv6 on a FreeBSD gateway, not an actual server, but
these rules might help you with your server as well (I also had a heck
of a time getting all RA/NDP services working until I fixed this
ruleset). The biggest gotcha for me was ensuring that link-local and
multicast was allowed to/from hosts on my LAN.

Here's a subset of what I had to apply in my ruleset:

6lan = "2001:1111:2222::1/64"
table <v6local> { fe80::/10, ff01::/8, ff02::/8 }

pass  in  quick on $lan inet6 from { $6lan, <v6local> }
pass  out quick on $lan inet6 to { $6lan, <v6local> }


As this my internal network, I allow all traffic here and then filter
incoming/outgoing ports and whatnot on my WAN interface, but hopefully
you get the general idea.
