First, when/if you ever upgrade to FC3 you should notice that
a lot of the IPv6 compatibility problems with some applications
are getting better.
Now, there are two ways to force sshd to only use IPv4:
1. Add (or edit) the file /etc/sysconfig/sshd, putting into it:
OPTIONS="-4"
2. Edit the /etc/sshd/sshd_config file, and change the
Listen directive to be "0.0.0.0" rather than "::".
