How can I tell if ipv6 is running in 10.1 and how can I turn it off if it is? TIA Paul
Hi Paul, I'm running 10.1 and IPv6 appears to be enabled by default. At least it shows up when I run 'ifconfig -a' as root. Several SLE members contributed to the solution, below, including Joachim Schrod, Darryl Gregorash and Michael James (gotta give credit where it's due... this one *works*!) in /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2: FW_IPv6="no" FW_IPv6_REJECT_OUTGOING="" in /etc/sysconfig/windowmanager: KDE_USE_IPV6="no" Add the following lines to /etc/modprobe.conf.local: # We don't need and don't want no stinkin' IPv6 install sit0 /bin/true install ipv6 /bin/true install net-pf-10 /bin/true hth & regards, Carl
