[solved] I seem to have found and fixed the problem and so have some confirmation I was on the right track in my previous post. Specifically in file common.c line 3328 I changed: if (ioctl(s, ioctl_cmd, )) { debug_printf(LOG_NOTICE, FNAME, "failed to %s an address on %s: %s",

I noticed going through the avahi docs that this is used by Apple apparently. Also Cox says there is a compatibility issue with the Apple Airport Extreme and IPv6 failing after a day with the resolution being restart the device. My issue is the IPv6 update for the subnet fails after 24 hours or

I have found evidence that the wide-dhcpv6 version in Ubuntu 14.04 at least was written on a 32-bit architecture and never properly redesigned for a 64-bit compilation. The evidence for this found in the source code goes as follows: 1. Consistent use of the printf formatter %ul for 32-bit int

No. As I am understanding the linked documentation, if you are setting up a wide-dhcpv6 server, this can be specified. However seeing I am not an ISP, but instead a customer, I am relegated to being a client and specifying these parameters do not seem to be an option for the client. Especially
