- Thread-topic: IPv6 link-local support
Hi,
I was trying to use a IPv6 link-local address for the host running
chrony as a server. chronyc clearly shows that chronyd receives the
packets, but the clients (running ntpd) never receive a response.
Googling a bit, I stumbled on
https://serverfault.com/questions/876504/how-to-configure-ntp-server-and-chrony-client-for-time-sync-over-link-local-ipv6
with the rather clear comment "chrony doesn't support link-local addresses"..
Now, is that a fundamental limitation, or is it something that might be
supported? We have a number of clients that want to switch to chrony,
but lack of IPv6LL is mostly a showstopper. I'm happy to try to dig into
the code and help produce patches, but I will probably need a few
pointers to get me started.
Thanks,
Rasmus
