Re: cfservd ipv6

[Mark . Burgess]

It doesn't matter that the host is only listening on ipv6. It
still hears ipv4. Take a look at the ipv6 notes in the searchable
index at www.cfengine.org about this. If you get connection refused
it is far more likely to be something else.

Send detailed/precise error messages if you want more help.
