There have been 3 different fixes posted on this.

Rudolfo just sent "That was "alias net-pf-10 off". Also "install ipv6
/bin/true" if I recall correctly." regarding lines to put in
/etc/modprobe.conf .

I also use the line "NETWORKING_IPV6=no" in my /etc/sysconfig/network
file.  Reading the /etc/init.d/network file it seems that this is the
only one needed but I have not tested that to see. 

At least some combination of these three work because it fixed mine. (I
have all 3 lines in place)
