Title: Kill DHCP6 daemon?
Post by: lshantz on September 04, 2019, 01:04:23 AM
Hopefully I am not asking a duplicate question. I could not find it if it is.

I noticed that I am getting tons of dhcp6 [50828] (process id?) "sending solicit" and  Listen queue overflows.

Since I do not wish to have dhcp6 running at all in any way shape or form on this little box, I went through and thought I had turned it all off. I can not find anything left that has dhcp6 turned on in the GUI anywhere.

so I looked at the processes and sure enough there is dhcp6 cranking away. I killed the process and now the buffer overflows are gone as well.

So the question is, shouldn't I be able to turn this service off via gui? If not, how can I permanently keep it off after reboot?
