Yes that's the same issue. And it seems to be fixed in some version as well? I just tested it on Eoan, using systemd 242-6, and the valid__lft and preferred_lft did indeed change to 'forever'. Don't know which version it was fixed in though. Do you think it kan be backported to Bionic?
The discussion in the GitHub issue was rather interesting as well. I kind of "agree" that this is a strange thing to do, but I don't think that should be any of systemd's business.. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1833193 Title: systemd-networkd fails to apply static IPv4 when the static IP is the same as previously configured by DHCP To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/systemd/+bug/1833193/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
