Talk:Configure Networking

The page used to say:

To set the system hostname, do something like the following:
 echo "hostname.domain.com" > /etc/hostname

However, setup-hostname only accepts short-form hostnames (without .domain.com). Which is it?

IPv6 should not be optional

"Enabling IPv6 (Optional)"

The first presentation at SouthEast LinuxFest 2010 was titled "IPv6: No Longer Optional". That was 10 years ago. Please enable it by default.

I agree. I renamed the section title. Would be nice if it was enabled by default everywhere; I am still seeing cases where having dualstack turned on by default causes issues, amazingly, in 2023... One of my dumbass ISPs, Optimum (Altice), still doesn't have IPv6, which is insane.
