sudo ifconfig inet6 eth0 down This is the output of the command: eth0: Unknown host what am I doing wrong. or is there a config file that I need to edit? Here are my ifconfig outputs: (I I pinged it count=10 between ifconfigs) wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:16:44:9b:b3:bc inet addr:10.167.102.104 Bcast:10.167.103.255 Mask:255.255.254.0 inet6 addr: fe80::216:44ff:fe9b:b3bc/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:19710 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:102 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:1829455 (1.8 MB) TX bytes:12200 (12.2 KB) wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:16:44:9b:b3:bc inet addr:10.167.102.104 Bcast:10.167.103.255 Mask:255.255.254.0 inet6 addr: fe80::216:44ff:fe9b:b3bc/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:25962 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:112 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:2385423 (2.3 MB) TX bytes:13099 (13.0 KB)
