slaac/privacy extensions disable at boottime at linux

[Eric Vyncke (evyncke)]

Thomas,

On my ubuntu, I have a directory  /etc/network/if-pre-up.d containing scripts executed BEFORE the interface comes up.

In the old /etc/network/interfaces you could also apply some pre-up configuration

This may do your trick
