[Bug 700492] Re: ntp complains about ipv6 errors every 5 minutes

[John Kounis]

The problem does not resolve for me. I still get the following errors
(uptime is >3 days):

Apr 27 22:01:44 pgfs ntpd[2535]: bind() fd 24, family AF_INET6, port 123, scope 4, addr fe80::217:31ff:fef8:f63f, mcast=0 flags=0x11 fails: Cannot assign requested address

Here is my /etc/network/interfaces. Note that I have 2 aliases on bond 0. I don't know if that matters:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto bond0 
iface bond0 inet static
address 10.11.12.4
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 10.11.12.0
broadcast 10.11.12.255
gateway 10.11.12.1
up /sbin/ifenslave bond0 eth0 eth1
down /sbin/ifenslave -d bond0 eth0 eth1

auto bond0:0
iface bond0:0 inet static
address 10.11.12.5
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 10.11.12.0
broadcast 10.11.12.255

auto bond0:1
iface bond0:1 inet static
address 10.11.12.21
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 10.11.12.0
broadcast 10.11.12.255
