Lonnie, et al:

Do you have the NTP startup issue ?  I'm stumped by why this doesn't have
more pervasive impact. I'm always ready to find out that it's a cockpit
error on my part. 

Trunk-1725 didn't have the ipv6 module loaded, and there are updates to both
rc.conf and /etc/init.d/network to support the loading of the ipv6 module. 

Attempts to remove the ipv6 modules from the cmd line after boot have been
thwarted:

modprobe -r ipv6
FATAL: Module ipv6 is in use.

I've been fiddling with the network startup script:

# IPv6
  echo "ipv6 is $IPV6..."
  modprobe -l ipv6
  if [ -n "$IPV6" ]; then
          echo "loading ipv6..."
            modprobe ipv6
    else
          echo "removing ipv6..."
            modprobe -r ipv6
  fi
  modprobe -l ipv6


It appears that ipv6 is pre-loaded prior to this, and manages to avoid
unloading it. the modprobe -l ipv6 before and after both report that is it
loaded.

It does appear IP6 is causing problems... (0.6.2)

Simple example:

pbx ~ # nslookup localhost
Server:    10.10.50.1
Address 1: 10.10.50.1 gw-xtra.priv.abelbeck.com

Name:      localhost
Address 1: 7f00:1:f069:aebf::
Address 2: 127.0.0.1 localhost

pbx ~ # wget http://localhost
Connecting to localhost ([7f00:1:c0b8:bfbf::100:0]:80)
wget: socket(AF_INET6): Address family not supported by protocol

pbx ~ # telnet localhost
telnet: socket(AF_INET6): Address family not supported by protocol
