Title: os-ddclient needs the option to turn off ipv6 (and ipv4) checks
Post by: JustMeHere on August 11, 2022, 12:32:49 AM
The UI needs a way to allow the end user to select if the IPV6 and/or IPV4 addresses will be checked.  It's possible to put these options into the config file according to the link below.  I specifically do not want to list a IPV6 address.  I don't know if it would be a good idea to turn off IPV4, but might as well make it an option in the GUI too.

I just found this:
From Dynamic DNS service, go to the "General settings" tab.
Click the "advanced" toggle
There is a checkbox for "Allow IPv6".
Try it out!

I do not have this checked, but it does not put the "ipv6=no" into the config file.  Is this a bug?
