auditd starting later in boot sequence, w/o ipV6

[Lenny Bruzenak]

In case anyone has as much trouble as I do following instructions, here
is my /etc/systemd/system/auditd.service file excerpt, which enables the
auditd to start a bit later, especially after disabling ipV6 in the
kernel command options.  Just showing the changed part. I first copied
the entire file from /usr/lib/systemd/system/auditd.service.

HTH,
