Description Lindsay Haisley 2004-05-21 23:16:19 UTC 
ntpdate 4.2.0-r2 fails with the error "setsockopt() IPV6_V6ONLY failed: Protocol not available".  IPv6 is enabled and operational on the box, and many apps (apache, mozilla, ssh, etc.) work properly with it.  ntpdate uses an IPv4 time server address, and using the "-4" option with it has no effect on the problem.

I have reverted to ntpdate 4.1.2 which doesn't have the problem.

I should add that there's been some discussion of this on the gentoo forums, and I'm apparently not alone with this problem.  see

4.2.0.20040617 has a bunch of ipv6 fixes
