[ntp:questions] ntp broadcast not working with IPv6

Hi, Iam facing issues with ntp broadcast in case of IPv6. Iam using the latest ntp 4.26p3 package. Can I have a use case scenario for ntp broadcast in IPv6? As I see in the documentation, we can have only multicast addresses in IPv6. Here are my configurations: Client side: *# Created by IMI. /e

Hi David, Iam using the ntp package that is available for Debian 64. http://packages.debian.org/stable/ntp http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/amd64/ntp/download Not sure whether this is Openntp? One query though it is not intended to discuss here: So, if the option(-D2) is not present can't we run

Hi Danny, Actually I ran the ntpd with Debug option before with a downloaded source code (ntp-4.26p4). These are the logs Iam seeing on the client side... *6 Dec 06:11:52 ntpd[2884]: set_process_priority: Leave priority alone: priority_done is <2>* * 6 Dec 06:11:52 ntpd[2884]: proto: precision =

Re: [ntp:questions] ntp broadcast not working with IPv6

Thanks for your inputs Danny. Hi Dave, Can you give your inputs on this below issue? Is the socket bind failing due to the reuse of the udp port 123. But I assume for ntp multicast client also we use the same port for listening. Or Is it due to some other issue? On Wed, Dec 7, 2011 at 6:34 PM,

Re: [ntp:questions] ntp broadcast not working with IPv6

Hi Danny, Have you got a chance to go through the code for this? Here though the socket bind is failing the multicast registration is happening successfully (which are shown by the debug traces here.) Does that have anything to infer here? > > On Thu, Dec 8, 2011 at 9:58 AM, Danny Mayer wrote:
