This is because you are using the kernel that came with the Woody installation CDROM. This is very very old, and hence full of security holes. The easiest solution for you is to install a kernel from the apt repository: apt-get install kernel-image-2.4.18-1-386 That one has the ipv6 module (along with lots of others), and it up to date with security patches.
