Currently it’s being dropped even if the force bind parameter is used in line 1285 of main.c in avahi-autoipd. I found an old email thread in the archives that says, “avahi-autoipd subscribes to network configuration changes and removes its own address if a routable address is assigned. (Unless --force-bind is passed).“ This message leads me to believe that it should not be calling unbind on the avahi-autoipd.action script when a routable address is configured when the force bind parameter was used. Can anyone verify that adding a check for --force-bind in line 1284 will not break Avahi or have unintended consequences other than to maintain a link local address when the force bind argument is used and a routable address is assigned?<o:p></o:p></pre><pre><o:p> </o:p></pre><pre>Thanks,<o:p></o:p></pre><pre>  Ksatria Williams<o:p></o:p></pre></div> </body> </html>
