I have just moved a host from a network that supports static IPv4 and IPv6. The IPv4 addr is set in ifcfg-eth0, and the IPv6 via RA (I set the MAC so I get an IPv6 addr that I like). I just moved the host to a network that supports static IPv4, but only dymanic IPv6, so at this time (until I get static IPv6), I need to disable the global IPv6 addressing. So in the ifcfg-eth0 file I set: IPV6INIT="no" But I am still getting a global IPv6 (and of course local scope). What else do I need to do to disable the listening for RA announcements and setting an IPv6 global address? I do not want to reboot the box. I can restart the network as needed. I seem to recall, once upon atime an option in /etc/sysconfig/network thanks
