This bug is still present in 20.04. It does not matter if I have listen-on-ipv6 set to a specific address or any. Still the described behaviour is seen.
As a workaround if I set a static IPv6 address on the interface it works. But if the interface is set to auto, or there is a slight delay in setting the address otherwise the problem reappears. IMHO the solution is that network.target in should not pass until ipv6 auto address mechanism has had a chance to run. This will delay the boot by a second or two. But it will ensure that the interface has an address when daemons start to bind to it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/510587 Title: Bind/named does not initialize on boot due to missing IPv6 address To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bind9/+bug/510587/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
