may i _kindly_ ask to give a relieable way like ipv6.disable=1 which works in F17/F18 and not in F19 beause i know what i am doing and there is currently no need for ipv6 the "inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 scopeid 0x10<host>" means i need as example to run ip6tables to block access on servers to localhost:139/445 because internally the machine is serviced via SMB instead FTP but a PHP-script must never open a socket to the samba daemon
