rmmod ipv6 Also add "ipv6" to your "blacklist" file in /etc/modprobe.d/ and reboot. |

Why do you care? You have no IPv6 connectivity, so it won't be used, and won't do any harm at all. |

You can disable ipv6 with a sysctl call. As root : Code: sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1 You can now check that ifconfig doesn't show ipv6 addresses anymore. In order for this to be automated on each reboots, you create a file Code: /etc/sysctl.d/60-noipv6.conf which contains Code: net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1 Hope it helps. |

THANK YOU!!! I've been wondering that, but it wasn't bugging me enough to care enough to ask as I'm only using my Linode for testing right now. |
