Thanks Tore for checking so much Details and all the relations to NetworkManager it might have on a Desktop. On a server (no NM) I'd think it is always enabled i'd think.
But if that is a bug or not is a"discussion". Just as much as users want it off (here) others want it on - see bug 176125 and bug 841353. I think it is about the best default and control. Reading through these bugs IMHO I see stronger arguments to keep it enabled for now - and since /etc/sysctl.d/10-ipv6-privacy.conf is a conffile it can be adapted if needed. I'd currently be more concerned if disabling in /etc/sysctl.d/10-ipv6-privacy.conf would not switch them off in all of them, but had no time to check. I'll also subscribe cyphermox who worked on enabling that if this becomes more of a discussion. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1068756 Title: IPv6 Privacy Extensions enabled on Ubuntu Server by default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cloud-init/+bug/1068756/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
