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

[James Page]

Confirmed using the following setup:

qemu/libvirt vm running Maverick 10.10 i386 install; added two
additional network adapters and then bonded eth1 and eth2 using a fairly
standard bonding configuration (ifenslave as described above).  ipv4
addressing works fine - however get the same error message as the
original reporter when ntp tries to bond to the ipv6 link address on
bond0:

Jan 20 13:22:23 maverick-triage ntpd[1496]: bind() fd 23, family AF_INET6, port 123, scope 5, addr fe80::5054:ff:feb4:db79, mcast=0 flags=0x11 fails: Cannot assign requested address
Jan 20 13:22:23 maverick-triage ntpd[1496]: unable to create socket on bond0 (8) for fe80::5054:ff:feb4:db79#123
Jan 20 13:22:23 maverick-triage ntpd[1496]: failed to initialize interface for address fe80::5054:ff:feb4:db79
