hi bathory !
Thanks for reply.
Already I did the same. but my network manager is arguing reg in my system ipv6 is disabled but kernel is ready to support ipv6, if ipv6 service is enabled.
Case1:
[root@srinivas ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network
NETWORKING=yes
NETWORKING_IPV6=no
HOSTNAME=localhost.localdomain
Case2:
[root@srinivas ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
# Intel Corporation 82557/8/9 [Ethernet Pro 100]
DEVICE=eth0
ONBOOT=yes
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
IPADDR=192.168.0.119
GATEWAY=192.168.0.13
TYPE=Ethernet
USERCTL=no
IPV6INIT=no
PEERDNS=yes
BOOTPROTO=none
HWADDR=00:a0:c9:db:90:81
[root@srinivas ~]#
As per you mail these are the results for those commands,
[root@srinivas ~]# lsmod|grep ipv6
ipv6 267745 14
[root@srinivas ~]# ifconfig

Let me know is really ipv6 is enabled in my system or not. Incase if it is enabled how can I disable it.
