# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6 0
That is, IPv6 is NOT disabled in reality.
Further checking indicated that it was not disabled in /etc/sysctl.conf either[5].
So I used the command-line to disable it and my problem was immediately cured:
# echo 1> /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6
FWIW, I set ipv6.disable=1 on my Grub kernel lines in 11.3 & 11.4, and /proc/sys/net/ipv6* doesn't even exist. -- "How much better to get wisdom than gold, to choose understanding rather than silver."
