[Bug 257909] [NEW] bind9 doesn't bind to IPv6 interfaces

[Falk Stern]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: bind9

Bind 9.5.0 doesn't bind to IPv6 interfaces.

excerpt from named.conf:

options {
        directory "/etc/bind";
        allow-recursion { 212.21.92.192/28; 10.0.0/24; 127.0.0.1; 2001:6f8:1101::/48; };
        listen-on { 127.0.0.1; 212.21.92.196; };
        listen-on-v6 { 2001:6f8:1101::2; }; 
};

ip addr show dev eth0:

2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000
    link/ether 00:60:6e:00:00:13 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
