IPv6 keeps getting enabled on reboot (setting is off)

Virtualmin
1

When I reboot server IPv6 becomes enabled.

From the Activated at Boot tab, IPv6 shows as disabled.
however on reboot, the Active Now tab shows IPv6 as enabled (so I manually disable).

I’ve had some issues with some users trying to connect to a domain and once IPv6 is turned off again all is good.
(I sometimes forget to manually disable until a user reminds :o) )

I’ll get some screenshots.

thanks for any advice.

Your hosting provider has probably configured networking with cloud-init or some other ancillary system that isn’t using the same config files Webmin is looking at.
