I have to disagree on that. NATs is the problem and I am one of the causes of that problem as one of the principals behind RFC 1918.
What has happened is that HTTP has become the transport for the Internet. Very bad in a number of ways.
But for another time. Perhaps. Right now I have to deal with a new ISP that was on the road to static IPv6 when somehow the lead engineer kind of stopped responding to emails and I won't find out the details until IETF later this month.

IPv6 = solution looking for a problem.
Disabled on all our systems!

Sorry - that should be
sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_ra=0
to disable that, not 1.

Try:
sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_ra=1
to persist between boots, be sure to add this to your /etc/sysctl.conf file.
This should prevent the box from listening to any RA announcements.

you
are looking to avoid, so you may want to try other methods to remove
your
address in the running configuration.
'All' I need is for the system not to have a global IPv6 address. Then
it
will not try to connect to other global IPv6 systems which will reject
the
connection, as the IPv6 rDNS cannot be set, given it is a dynamic IPv6 assigned address from the ISP.
I tried:
# cat /etc/sysconfig/network NETWORKING=yes HOSTNAME=z9m9z.htt-consult.com NETWORKING_IPV6=no IPV6INIT=no
and 'service network restart' but still showing IPv6 addressing.
I would try adding the below line to /etc/sysconfig/network.
IPV6_AUTOCONF=no
