Just in case - I've just found that IPv6 might be enabled at the NetPlan level, despite all of the sysctl and other configs.

To disable - add to the appropriate yaml file in /etc/netplan - link-local: [ ipv4 ] - on the same level as dhcp instruction. Run netplan try and netplan apply if you are lucky.

That seems to disable IPv6 on Linux.

<rant> Linux start looking more and more like Windows </rant>

Yep this has been discussed above in this thread...from post #52 onward. The solution provided by @joseph worked on my end. I had originally tried something along the line you mentioned (adding link-local: [ ipv4 ] to the yaml file but that didn't work...although I might have done it wrong).

In that case I would just disable IPv6 altogether from your server network interface. That's the only only thing that worked for me.
