 The configuration steps to get tor running on an ipv6 only host is not
 clearly documented anywhere official.


 FAQ - How do I use Tor from an IPv6 only host/computer?

 Answer - You'll need to be using Tor version  0.2.8.x or newer and add the
 following two entries into your torrc.

 ClientUseIPv4 0
 ClientUseIPv6 1



 In the torrc man page, the ClientUseIPv6 section can have this one line
 appended.

 For IPv6 only hosts, you need to set ClientUseIPv4 to 0 to disable IPv4.


 Thanks mutantmonkeey and gamambel on #tor for the solution and access to
 trac! :-)
