    Hello,

    Is the a proper way to disable ipv6 on wheezy ?

    The following command works for squueze and I expect that it works for wheezy as well:

    Code:
    echo 'net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1' > /etc/sysctl.d/disableipv6.conf
    and then reboot the server.

    Please check the file /etc/sysctl.d/disableipv6.conf, if the line in that file is enclosed in ', then remove ' at the beginning and the end of the line and reboot.

    There is no ' ...

    This workaround works on squeeze, but not on wheezy

    I had a typo in the path, please use this path:

    /etc/sysctl.d/disable-ipv6.conf
