By itself no, you'll have to reboot.

I'm only talking about the host hylafax, the others don't have a
problem. SuSEfirewall2 runs by default with (about) all incoming
blocked. The default also logs dropped ipv6 packets, which in turn
forces the ipv6 modules to be loaded. As I said, you'll need to disable
that (or remove the firewall from the runlevel and reboot). To disable,
inspect variables starting with FW_IPv6_ in /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2.

nscd is the name service caching daemon. It gets installed and started
by default.

I never had a problem with IPv6, but I also have all local machines in
/etc/hosts (because for so few it's not worth bothering with a more
elaborate setup).
