ipv6

Hello, I have disabled ipv6 on my Raspberry, by configuring /etc/sysctl.conf, but still port 22 (ssh) is hold by tcp6. netstat show tcp6 ..22[ssh] ..1/init

? no more inet6 on ifconfig when I try starting sshd (/etc/ini.d/ssh or service ssh restart ) it fail by port already in use? Any idea? many thanks in advance

After reconfiguring a server like sshd, you need to restart it for the change to take effect: sudo systemctl restart sshd

and then: sudo systemctl status sshd

to check that the changed configuration is OK and sshd gas restarted correctly.

Have you done that?

If you just edited sysctl.conf, that setting won't take effect until you reboot or do 'sysctl -p'. And then restart sshd.

I did and they look ok. Ifconfig without ipv6 seems that the changes are taken in account. Presently I am more thinking about a process started with ipv6 as parameter.

I did that and ifconfig without ipv6 seems to indicate it took in in account. I more thinking of a process (init)(sshd) that start with a ipv6 parameter.

Isn't that where closed connections go to wait for timeout?

What are you trying to achieve?

What commands are you using and what is the actual output you are seeing?

First many thanks to everybody who answered. The problem is solved, it was due to me! installing tinyssh who to port

22 and kept running from the init process with tcp6. I removed tinyssh and hop it worked.
