Disable IPv6 in Debian

As I've posted before that there may be reasons you want to disable IPv6.  A simple way to do this in Debian is to edit /etc/modprobe.d/aliases with the following lines

alias net-pf-10 off
alias ipv6 off

Restart and verify you are no longer running IPv6 by using the netstat command.

netstat -tunlp
