I'm trying to run Dell OMSA on Ubuntu 8.04. However, it's binding to ipv6 and not to an ipv4 address. I can't seem to figure out how to change this behavior.

So, since I don't need ipv6 support, I'd like to just disable it and see if that clears things up.

I've tried blacklisting ipv6 in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist (blacklist ipv6), and turning it off in /etc/modprobe.d/aliases (alias net-pf-10 off). I'm seeing both solutions recommended in forums and blogs, but neither works.

Have you tried using "alias net-pf-10 off ipv6" instead of "alias net-pf-10 off" ? – sntg Apr 1 '10 at 15:10
Oops. Yeah, ipv6 is still enabled. – Boden Apr 1 '10 at 16:57

The short answer is "you can't". While there are a few ways to try and hack it off they usually don't stick over kernel upgrades.

The output of netstat -tul might be helpful.
