On OpenIndiana 5.11 oi_151a9 I am seeing a message in
/var/adm/messages every five minutes which looks like:
Mar 7 20:40:33 weerd ntpd[19474]: [ID 702911 daemon.error] bind(54)
AF_INET6 fe80::225:90ff:fe6b:ace0%26%26#123 flags 0x11 failed: Cannot
assign requested address
Mar 7 20:40:33 weerd ntpd[19474]: [ID 702911 daemon.error] unable to
create socket on igb0 (6) for fe80::225:90ff:fe6b:ace0%26#123
This is really clogging up the log files.
ifconfig shows:
lo0: flags=2001000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,VIRTUAL> mtu 8232
index 1
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
igb0: flags=1004843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,DHCP,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 4
inet 65.66.246.66 netmask ffffffe0 broadcast 65.66.246.95
lo0: flags=2002000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6,VIRTUAL> mtu 8252
index 1
inet6 ::1/128
igb0: flags=20002004841<UP,RUNNING,MULTICAST,DHCP,IPv6> mtu 1500 index 4
inet6 fe80::225:90ff:fe6b:ace0/10
and /etc/inet/ntp.conf contains:
server 65.66.246.74
restrict default ignore
restrict 65.66.246.74 nomodify
restrict 65.66.246.64 mask 255.255.255.224 nomodify notrap nopeer
restrict 127.0.0.1
restrict -6 ::1
It seems that passing -4 as an argument to ntpd should cause this
warning to go away.
The service name is svc:/network/ntp:default. Is there a way to add
this option to the server arguments without editing the service
definition itself? If not, is there an easy way to make this
annoyance stop?
