And the cups update to fix a denial of service that yumex did last night, now 
is a denial of service, my logs are drowning in:

============

I am behind a firewall here, and no reason to setup any ipv6 stuffs yet, but 
something has enabled it, now apparently causing amanda to fail also.  What 
the heck?

More and more, fedora is turning into one grand denial of service.  Its 
getting old, fast!

Thanks for any hints to fix this, it is probably one common cause. ipv6 where 
it isn't wanted.
