I am fairly new to NetBSD. I have run it briefly before but I have more
experience with Linux.

I just installed NetBSD 3.1 and when I try to use
pkg_add it tries to connect to an ipv6 address and dies.
I can ftp manually but It seems like it would be a lot of trouble to figure
what packages are need to install something.
I found one suggestion on the web to do

sysctl -w net.inet6.ip6.v6only=0

But that didn't work.

Please help this on the only computer that has my cd burner on it and If I
can't solve it I'll have to try a different of.
