Disable IPv6 #196

Closed intelliant01 closed 2 years ago

intelliant01 commented 2 years ago

With IPv6 enabled, the update process breaks for one as some systems are not able to resolve to repo.myscoolserver.com.

@cyberorg This breaks xrdp, hence Remmina due to this problem - https://github.com/neutrinolabs/xrdp/issues/714 xrdp 0.9.5 is there on the server.

intelliant01 commented 2 years ago

https://github.com/neutrinolabs/xrdp/issues/1888#issuecomment-843180149 So the options are - Either compile on your own with --disable-ipv6 or upgrade platform to 20.04 to get the latest xrdp which has this fixed. @cyberorg Thus compiled package needed for immediate fix rollout.

Have rolled back the IPv6 disabling fix. Will manage this situation as of now by trying to manually disable IPv6 just before attempting an upgrade or when we encounter the address resolution error.

sudo sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1
sudo sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6=1
sudo sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.lo.disable_ipv6=1

AFAIR, this fix had not worked, yet will try again since there is no other immediate solution. Ref: https://itsfoss.com/disable-ipv6-ubuntu-linux/
