Bug Report from www.isc.org:

  • Name: John Newlin
  • Email: jnewlin@google.com
  • Software Version: DHCP 4.1-ESV-R9
  • OS: Linux versions: 3.2.26 and 2.6.32.11
  • Subject:dhclient exits immediately

Bug Detail

If dhclient -6 is started immediately after ifup, dhclient exits with the message:
[ 19.510927] dhclient6.wan0: Can't bind to dhcp address: Cannot assign requested address
[ 19.510954] dhclient6.wan0: Please make sure there is no other dhcp server
[ 19.510970] dhclient6.wan0: running and that there's no entry for dhcp or
[ 19.510987] dhclient6.wan0: bootp in /etc/inetd.conf. Also make sure you
[ 19.511003] dhclient6.wan0: are not running HP JetAdmin software, which
[ 19.511017] dhclient6.wan0: includes a bootp server.

If I wait a bit and run it, it runs fine. I think it's because when the interface comes up the local link address is marked "tentative" and not really usable until the multiple address detection has finished running.
