Hi,
Ever since I upgraded from 5.2.1-RELEASE to 5.3-RELEASE, I've been getting the following error on boot:
ntpd[380]: bind() fd 7, family 28, port 123, addr fe80:1
::204:61ff:fe46:be89, in6_is_addr_multicast=0 flags=0 fails: Can't assign requested address


ntpd seems to be working from what I can see in it's log file, but I can't do anything with ntpq to check it. Wether I run it as my normal user or as root, running ntpq -p always gives:
ntpq: write to localhost.foo.com failed: Permission denied



I had once a problem with ntpd, when also running named. Some hostname resolution failed, because the servers were started in the wrong order. Are you also running named?

Here is my ntpd entries in rc.conf:
ntpd_enable="YES"               # Run ntpd Network Time Protocol (or NO).
ntpd_program="/usr/sbin/ntpd"   # path to ntpd, if you want a different one.
ntpd_flags="-c /etc/ntp.conf -p /var/run/ntpd.pid"

I use: ntpd_enable="YES" ntpd_flags="-g"

and the contents of ntp.conf:
server          210.48.130.204
server          augean.eleceng.adelaide.edu.au
driftfile       /var/db/ntpd.drift
logfile         /var/log/ntpd

And here I use: driftfile /var/db/ntpd.drift pidfile /var/run/ntpd.pid server nr1.time.server server nr2.time.server server nr3.time.server


Does that help you?

Rob.
