IPNAT & IPv6

[Hideki Yamamoto]

Hi,

As far as I have tested pf(packet filter) on FreeBSD 5.3R,
NAT function with IPv6 does not work well.  Log says conversion is
done.  But source address is not translated.  Though I asked 
about it in freebsd-pf mailing list, we have not had any reponses yet.

Regard,

Hideki Yamamoto
