Re: [opensuse] Can't Update while defaulting to IPv6

* Rodney Baker <rodney.baker@xxxxxxxxxxxx> [04-26-12 08:27]:

If you are not on an IPv6 capable network there is no need to have IPv6
enabled at all. You can turn it of by going to Yast2 -> Network Devices ->
Network Settings -> Global Options -> uncheck "Enable IPv6" under IPv6
Protocol Settings. You will need to reboot for this setting to take effect.

hickup:

I do not have IPv6 but do have it enabled as w/o I do not have ssh access
to those machines :^( Began w/11.2
