disable ipv6

807557Jan 12 2007 — edited Jan 17 2007

hello
im trying to disable ipv6 for all the services
and im wondering if i have to configure every service to run only on ipv4
or can i unload some modules? or some other way?
i was thinking on
modunload -i [id of ip6 and tcp6]
but this gives me the error:
can't unload the module: Device busy
i try and restart the box the modul is still loaded still nothing done

i have many ports open, and i which to close them as i dont use ipv6

# netstat -an -f inet6

      *.*                               *.*                             0      0 49152      0 IDLE
      *.389                             *.*                             0      0 49152      0 LISTEN
      *.25                              *.*                             0      0 49152      0 LISTEN
      *.22                              *.*                             0      0 49152      0 LISTEN
      *.80                              *.*                             0      0 49152      0 LISTEN
