1 How does one disable IPv6 for a particular interface?
2
3 I want eth2 "up" but with no IP address. Just doing an "ifconfig eth2
4 up" worked fine until I enabled IPv6 support in the kernel. Now I get
5 a link-local IPv6 address just by bringing the interface up -- and I
6 don't want one.

8 Google has found me the anser for Debian, but for Gentoo all it found
9 was somebody else asking the qeustion (with no answers).
