--- Begin Message ---Package: wide-dhcpv6-server Version: 20080615-12 Severity: normal Hello, The issue: After a client sends an information-request message, the server replies not from port 547, but from a random UDP port. I'm not sure if it's really a bug and I don't know what the standard says about this, but, at least, the dibbler-server does reply from UDP port 547. I've installed the 20080615-12 version, by downloading the unstable sources of wide-dhcpv6 and compiling them on my wheezy machine, for the fixes related to the wide-dhcpv6-client. There's no improvement when using the stable, official build.
