dhclient -P -6 ppp0 does not receive dhcp-server responses

I think there is an error in your firewall.
You have "removed all rules for testing", but the policy is set to DROP.

# ip6tables -L -v -n -x
Chain INPUT (policy DROP 211 packets, 57041 bytes)
    pkts      bytes target     prot opt in     out     source               destination         


This means that ALL traffic will be dropped.

You need to do "ip6tables -P INPUT ACCEPT" and test again.
