Hi,

What is the address space is the address you are seeing on the interface?
Is it is a link-local address or one assigned by the router, a static from
rc.conf or DHCPv6? You should have two inet6 addresses, one is link-local
(starts with "fe") and another should start with "2". There may be more
than two.

I fear I cannot answer all of these questions. I don't have any IPv6
addresses configured in rc.conf. Also, I am not using dhcp. Basically
I only have IPv4 networking configured with static addresses --
neither have I actively _disabled_ IPv6.

This is my ifconfig output:

re0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
        
options=8009b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,LINKSTATE>
        ether 00:16:36:74:20:76
        inet XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX netmask 0xfffffff0 broadcast XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
        inet6 fe80::216:36ff:fe74:2076%re0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2
        nd6 options=29<PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
        media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>)
        status: active

        options=600003<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,RXCSUM_IPV6,TXCSUM_IPV6>
        inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128
        inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000
        nd6 options=21<PERFORMNUD,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
lo1: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 16384
        options=600003<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,RXCSUM_IPV6,TXCSUM_IPV6>
        inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 0xffffff00
        inet 192.168.1.2 netmask 0xffffff00
        inet 192.168.1.3 netmask 0xffffff00
        nd6 options=29<PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>

Also, I have noticed something: when i disable ntpd_enable in rc.conf
and start ntpd manually after boot up, no such errors are logged. So I
had the impression that is must have something to do with the
timing. I have changed /etc/rc.d/ntpd in such a way that it logs the
output of ifconfig at the beginning. But... there's no difference to
the ifconfig output above. Hence I am not sure what's going on.

Thanks for any help!
