Further to this tried: echo 'blacklist ipv6' >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist but received the same message as all the other times. Did: Ifdown eth0 then did: # rmmod ipv6 Same error message: libkmod: ERROR ../libkmod/libkmod-module.c:1802 kmod_module_get_holders: could not open '/sys/module/ipv6/holders': No such file or directory Error: Module ipv6 is in use Did: net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1 in /etc/sysctl.conf when I run: sysctl -p as root, I get this error message: sysctl: cannot stat /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6: No such file or directory So it has to be tricking me, because every line in /etc/sysctl.conf ipv4 or ipv6 is commented out? So it's trickin' or there is another file.
