FATAL: Module ipv6 not found. Failed to bring up eth0. [OK] IPv4 still works fine but not v6. I have been able to add and use an IPv6 address with the ifconfig command. Also when do "lsmod | grep ip" - nothing with IPv6 is displayed. Any idea what the problem is? Using Ubuntu 9.10 Server hi, after following your tutorial, this is the output that I get when I restart networking

*Reconfiguring network interfaces…
FATAL: Module ipv6 not found.
