Reading more into [1] and [2] I'm not 100% if ntp just has an issue or if in general we should mask this interface type like:
interface ignore fe80::/64 [1]: https://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/html/miscopt.html#interface [2]: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/ip/ip-version-6-ipv6/113328-ipv6-lla.html -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to ntp in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1737998 Title: trying to bind on all interfaces is a good default, but fails on ipv6 link local Status in ntp package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: The default is "grab all" which is great for convenience and can be configured to be differently by argument -I (interface) or interface commands in the config. Currently it is "too" open on that. I see it trying to bing link local addresses for each of the KVM guests I spawn. They get virtual network devices and due to that ntp sees it tries to bind and fails.
