Disable Ipv6 in debian
Yes I know it may not be the best thing to do, but sometimes you need some quick hacks. So let’s do it.
First go do /etc/default/grub and modify this :
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX = "" to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX = "ipv6.disable = 1"
and then update grub with :
# update-grub2
And therefore you also need to tweek /etc/sysctl.conf a little with :
net.ipv6.conf.eth0.disable_ipv6 = 1
Where eth0 is the name of the network adapter. Reboot and it’s done !
