	Apologies, let me say this before I resend it:

Running Jessie: 3.11-2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.11.10-1 (2013-12-04)
x86_64 GNU/Linux

Toshiba c500/A00L w8 laptop

    Another thing I would like to do is to disable ipv6 on this system
    as satellite doesn't use ipv6

Without doing ifdown eth0 to see if I was using ipv6, I did:


# rmmod ipv6

libkmod: ERROR ../libkmod/libkmod-module.c:1802
kmod_module_get_holders: could not open '/sys/module/ipv6/holders': No
such file or directory Error: Module ipv6 is in use

So there is ipv6 in use.

How can I disable it and if someone knows, how can that enabled again
should I want to do so?

Thank you,
Charlie
