Description Wilfried Klaebe 2002-12-05 03:58:19 AEDT 
I wanted an option for my .ssh/config enabling me to say "use IPv6 for this host". Basically, I looked what command line options -4 and -6 do in ssh and made a config option out of it.

You can do this by explitictly specifying an v4 or v6 addr in "HostName xxx" - I
don't think we need another option.
