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 lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 16384 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.
