forwarding ipv6 requests to an ipv4 address

Hi all
I'm running Debian Squeeze/Sid on my box, which gained nice IPv6 connectivity by using aiccu. On this box I have a VirtualBox VM which runs an application providing IPv4 connectivity only through its virtual interfaces.
I'm wondering if it would be possible to forward the requests coming on a given TCP port of the sixxs IPv6 interface of my box to a TCP port of the IPv4 interface of the VM in order to make its services available to the world.
Thanks, Maurizio

That can be done using a variety of tools, amongst others: xinetd, 6tunnel, netcat6, socat.

no way to achieve the same result with port forwarding...? Thanks

Those tools do port forwarding.
