Nope, I startet with a virgin set up from the iso file

Oh, the above is from my current config, just for illustration purposes,
the config above is _not_ in the standard file, that is why I suggessted
to add it.

I started without disabling anything and found that sshd would not bind
to port 22. Then first thing I configured sshd_config to listen on the
ipv4 address 0.0.0.0. Bingo, sshd got further down the line.

Disabling IPv6 as a standard set up is just a suggestion to cater for
most people. At least where I live IPv6 is not a commodity item. I don't
know of any ISP here that pushes it (well maybe init7).

Maybe one day I will understand how IPv6 is supposed to work in the real
world. In the meantime it just clutters my display with unmemorable
addresses which are not routed. Do you have a a real world IPv6 connection?

cheers
