Hey Max, last I checked the title said 8.04, not 9.10. Sorry I haven’t updated lately.

To disable in 9.10, modify /etc/modprobe.d/aliases:

alias net-pf-10 off ipv6

Save, reboot.

Thx for the comment.

Using /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf to disable ipv6 doesn’t work on 9.10. Furthermore, IPv6 doesn’t seem to be loaded as a module at all. I an only assume it’s built into the Kernel. I use Linux so I can control my environment rather than having it handed to me, I don’t like this at all.

Mike S,

In newer versions of Ubuntu, the file you need to modify is blacklist.conf.

Dogafin,

Give this a shot:

sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist

Enter your super user password and you should see the file open. If you don’t know the password, type:

sudo passwd root

Enter the new password twice, then try to open the blacklist file.
