ifcfg-{lo,eth0,wlan0} all have IPV6INIT=no, however both eth0 and lo
have an inet6 address defined.

I don't know much about ipv6 but when I've disabled it on other linux
and solaris systems I don't have an inet6 line in the ifconfig output.

I've disabled the wireless interface by blacklisting brcmfmac so I don't
have wlan0.


Code:

    eth0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500

If it's only me who needs to change the avahi-daemon.conf file please
don't waste any time investigating.

ag66 did not report needing to make any changes.  It would be good if
they could confirm this.
