IPv6 scopeid not supported?
Hi all,
While trying to get ntp running on an IPv6 network using multicast I
ran in to a bit of a problem. It looks like the sin6_scope_id field in
struct sockaddr_in6 isn't used by bind(2), resulting in multicast
listeners only being able to listen the first interface. This is
especially troublesome if your first interface is fwip0.
Is this known, expected? I can't find a PR for anything mentioning
"scope".
My sample program works just fine on Archangel which has a running
interface with scopeid 0x01, and fails on Hobble, which doesn't. Note
that the scopeid 0x02 is compiled in to it both times, and both
machines have running interface with scopeid 0x02.
Cheers,
Lloyd
