lsof -i output for sshd (it shows ipv6): sshd      5493      root    3u  IPv6   8583       TCP *:33333 (LISTEN) but if I try to connect to it localy ie: ssh <a href="http://127.0.0.1:33333">127.0.0.1:33333</a>, I get --> ssh: <a href="http://127.0.0.1:33333">127.0.0.1:33333</a>: Name or service not known So I can't connect, I'm guessing becauses it uses ipv6...

Umm, thats a bad idea, there is absolutely no need to do that. Can you please describe the problem you are having? ssh uses *both* ipv4 and ipv6 by default, so unless you changed the configuration to use ipv6 only you should have no problems. Can you please describe the specific problem you are having?
