Hi, >> Perhaps Fedora is the wrong distribution for you. >> >> The whole idea behind Fedora is for it to be an "engineering proving >> ground" where new technologies (like IPv6) are rolled out for real world >> use. Not all Fedora users work in the networking fields. Many are developers who doesn't care about networking. Even most web, client-server and mobile developers are not close to being security experts and would configure a very insecure system if left by thenselves. This does not exclude them from being superb C, Java, PHP, Python, etc developers. I don't think it's a good policy to exclude some users because of others. And I don't thing people are understanding how real and serious are current IPv6 vulnerabilities. Biut I ask: would it be so hard for networking people to click once on anaconda or Network Manager to enable IPv6 if? I think it's harder for non-networking people to understand they should disable IPv6 else know how to configure IPv6 in a secure way. >> the main problem is not be able to *disable* it if >> you know what you are doing and know why therese >> is no need for ipv6 in your environment >> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=982740 IMHO those are two distinct issue, although related: 1. Users should be able to disable IPv6. Today they can't and this is a bug that hopefully will be solved soon. I think no one ever intended IPv6 to be mandatory. ;-) 2. The secure installation default should be IPv6 disabled. That's my proposal.
