[SOLVED] assigning IPv6 also adds /64 breaking apache

Submitted by sgrayban on Sat, 03/15/2014 - 03:18

I think I reported this once before and was fixed but it seems to be back again.

When assigning any shared or private IPv6 to a domain it also wants to add the /64 to then of the address

What it writes is the following which is wrong...

That's odd, I wasn't able to re-produce this.

I assume that the new IP entered did not have /64 at the end?

I made sure that /64 was not added in any template

Can you grep for that address in all the domain files in /etc/webmin/virtual-server/domains and let me know what you find? I suspect that Virtualmin incorrectly thinks that the IPv6 address for some domain has a /64 at the end.

The only domain that had the /64 was the only one I activated

What i do notice is that the shared IPv6 address is ending in /64 and I can't find where to remove that.

I found it...

I added...

iface eth0 inet6 static
address 2001:470:4b:20a::1/64
netmask 64

to interfaces by mistake -- it should have been

iface eth0 inet6 static
address 2001:470:4b:20a::1
netmask 64

Ok, that would explain it.
