Hi Andy,

The address was from /etc/network/interfaces, which I have renamed.

So I
sudo netplan apply
and
sudo apt purge ifupdown
and rebooted

Now I appear to have two IP6 addresses:

ian@hobsoni:~$ ifconfig
eth0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500
         inet 85.119.82.210  netmask 255.255.248.0  broadcast 85.119.87.255
         inet6 2001:ba8:1f1:f00d::2  prefixlen 64  scopeid 0x0<global>
         inet6 fe80::216:5eff:fe00:489  prefixlen 64  scopeid 0x20<link>

lo: flags=73<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING>  mtu 65536
         inet 127.0.0.1  netmask 255.0.0.0
         inet6 ::1  prefixlen 128  scopeid 0x10<host>
         loop  txqueuelen 1000  (Local Loopback)

ian@hobsoni:~$

Is that what you would expect?

Regards
Ian
