The errors is that it failes to bind 0.0.0.0#123, and that message was repeated for all interfaces. >How-To-Repeat: Add -DDISABLE_IPV6 to the CFLAGS and rebuild ntpd. Run it on a machine with IPv6 enabled. >Fix: I didn't trace it down to exactly where that was done. But I found that line 1218 -> 1233 in:
http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/release/8.2.0/contrib/ntp/ntpd/ntp_io.c?view=markup looks suspicious. The call to isc_net_probeipv6 is done regardless if we should have IPv6 or not. If ISC_PLATFORM_HAVEIPV6 is defined will also INCLUDE_IPV6_SUPPORT be defined according to line 60 so removing the second block seems like a correct solution. That solved my problem at least, Patch attached that applies to 8.2.0 cleanly. Patching head failed due to space changes after the if statements, but the same problem exists in the same place.
