Thank you,
 tcpdump and ethereal work fine with ipv6. I am trying to write  a program
that will only snif IPV6 packets so that I can test some specific 
features of IPv6 ( MobileIPv6), the program is working, but I have to sort
the packets my self. I was interested in using 
pcap_compile()  and I was searching for the correct string to filter only
IPv6 packets. I tried "proto ipv6" but it does not work.

Thank you
