[ntp:questions] pool.ntp.org : IPv6 monitoring seems broken

[Erwan David]

Hi,

Looking at my ntp sever stats in the pool
( http://www.pool.ntp.org/user/edavid ), I see the IPv6 address is not
reached by monitoring station. However IPv4 is same machine, and works.

I tried a ntpdate -d and got following result :

bibi:~ % ntpdate -d 2a01:e0b:2070::1

18 May 19:22:11 ntpdate[10782]: adjust time server 2a01:e0b:2070::1 offset -0.003128 sec


Thus it seems the server works in IPv6

I fear there is a routing problem for IPv6 monitoring

And seeing there are 20 IPv6 servers less in fr.pool.ntp.org is not a
surprise for me, I remarked several servers in this range (Illiad,
french ISP)
