Hi Team,

We've encountered the following error after disabling IPv6. Previously, it was working fine when IPv6 was enabled. However, in our environment, IPv6 is not in use:
"pam_radius_auth: Failed to open RADIUS IPv6 socket: Address family not supported by protocol."


We've also noticed that there's no traffic appearing in the RADIUS server logs.


Here are the server details:


Output of cat /etc/os-release:

Output of uname -r:

Output of apt list --installed | grep pam-radius:


libpam-radius-auth/jammy,now 2.0.0-1 amd64 [installed]


We're seeking guidance on how to resolve this error. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.


Thank you.
