Everything in /etc/networkinterfaces.
It is a bit complicated let me explain the situation before going to
configuration :
The machine has 2 IPv4 addresses and 1 IPv6 on same physical
interface. IPv6 is fixed, but I must get a prefix delegation by a
dhcpv6 client for the prefix I get from hoster to be routed to the
machine (I use dibbler per the hoster doc, but I could you another one)
So here is /etc/network/interfaces
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 88.190.17.120
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 88.190.17.1
up ip addr add 88.191.245.121/32 dev eth0 label eth0:0
up ip -6 addr add 2001:0bc8:30d3::1/64 dev eth0
down ip addr del 88.191.245.121/32 dev eth0 label eth0:0
down ip -6 addr del 2001:0bc8:30d3::1/64 dev eth0
88.190.17.120 is the "private" address (if I change server I will get
another address) 88.191.245.121 and 2001:0bc8:30d3::1 are the "public
addresses", becaus I may migrate them to another machine at same
hoster, making them more robust for public facing services (web email
and ntp server in pool.ntp.org for this one)
The router for IPv6 is given through the RA (I have the correct sysctl
set up for accepting teh RA *and* routing IPv6)
resolv.conf is
search rail.eu.org
nameserver 127.0.0.1
unbound listen on loopback when it is started:
unbound 3048 unbound 3u IPv4 11035 0t0 UDP 127.0.0.1:domain
unbound 3048 unbound 4u IPv4 11036 0t0 TCP 127.0.0.1:domain (LISTEN)
unbound 3048 unbound 5u IPv6 11037 0t0 UDP [::1]:domain
unbound 3048 unbound 6u IPv6 11038 0t0 TCP [::1]:domain (LISTEN)

I always use auto for fixed machines, like this server.

I use 2 dns servers, on different IP addresses : NSD on public
addresses, authoritative for the rail.eu.org zone and
2001:0bc8:30d3::/48 reverse zone, unbound on loopback and
88.190.17.120 as recursive server for my small infrastructure
But the problem is not here. I realize that my choice of logs was
rather poor. Here is another excerpt that I will comment

In parrallel lets see the logs for the DHCPv6 client :

2013.12.10 18:21:24 Client Notice Detected iface eth0/2,

2013.12.10 18:21:24 Client Notice Detected iface lo/1, MAC=00:00:00:00:00:00.

file...
2013.12.10 18:21:24 Client Critical Interface eth0/2 is down or doesn't have
any link-local address.
2013.12.10 18:21:24 Client Critical Fatal error during CfgMgr initialization.
See it starts at 18:21:24 2 s before link is on, and fails : The IPv6
network is thus not routed to me...
So the problem is clearly that several network services (ntpd, nsd,
dibbler-client at least) are started *before* interface is
completely up.
Thanks for reading this long message, but I think this logs
examination is important to understand what happens.
