This sounds an awful lot like privacy extensions are enabled for the
interface. If you disable privacy extensions, even with stateless
autoconfiguration enabled, the address should be the same unless the MAC
changes on the nic. Since this is a server privacy extensions should be
disabled.
cat /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/eth0/use_tempaddr
use_tempaddr - INTEGER
Preference for Privacy Extensions (RFC3041).
<= 0 : disable Privacy Extensions
== 1 : enable Privacy Extensions, but prefer public
addresses over temporary addresses.
