	Well, I really do want to disable the IPv6 interface 
entirely, so it doesn't show up in ifconfig, but I checked 
httpd.conf, and it has "Listen 80". The corresponding line in output 
from "netstat -an" is:

>tcp46      0      0  *.80                   *.*                    LISTEN

PS-I am using the same kernel file for both guest & www, so either 
www will be picking up IPv6 on its next upgrade, or there's some 
other configuration difference...
