Hi;

No, there is no MasterServerIP6 setting, however it can be done.

I use the "Change it to look like this:" setup in my systems from:

   http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Enable_IPv6#IPv6_Configuration

Assumes you have IPv6 addresses assigned to your hosts. I know there's
been a lot of discussion about it, however, I've not been able to use
a Link Local address (fe80::.)
