Ok, I'm at home now, so here goes:

(this is with IPV6 "off")

[root at localhost root]# ip addr show dev eth0
2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000
     link/ether 00:01:03:c1:d1:be brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
     inet 192.168.0.100/24 brd 192.168.0.255 scope global eth0

[root at localhost root]# ip -6 route
192.168.0.0/24 dev eth0  proto kernel  scope link  src 192.168.0.100
127.0.0.0/8 dev lo  scope link
default via 192.168.0.1 dev eth0

(and this is with IPV6 "on")
[root at localhost root]# ip addr show dev eth0
2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000
     link/ether 00:01:03:c1:d1:be brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
     inet 192.168.0.100/24 brd 192.168.0.255 scope global eth0

     inet6 ff02::1:ffc1:d1be/128 scope global
        valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
     inet6 ff02::1/128 scope global
        valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

[root at localhost root]# ip -6 route
fe80::/64 dev eth0  metric 256  mtu 1500 advmss 1440
ff00::/8 dev eth0  metric 256  mtu 1500 advmss 1440
default dev eth0  proto kernel  metric 256  mtu 1500 advmss 1440

IPV6 "off" or "on" is controlled by adding/removing the line

alias net-pf-10 off

from my /etc/modprobe.conf file.

Those outputs really don't tell me anything. Any help to you Daniel?

Thanks,
