A lot of things have changed since Hardy. I'm not familiar with Ubuntu server editions, but I believe I can provide an answer to your quandary. You could add a boot option that would disable IPv6, edit /etc/default/grub by adding ipv6.disable=1 to the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT line, then execute update-grub. Or, I'm not sure if network-manager is running on your server, but if it is then you could edit the eth0 connection and under the IPv6 Settings tab, choose Ignore in the Method field to obtain that address.
