You have been subscribed to a public bug: During the bootup of Dapper Drake Beta 2 (with all available updates installed) the /etc/init.d/networking script is called and it initializes my network interface eth0 correctly. But for some reason ifup, which is called by the networking script, doesn't execute /etc/network/if-up.d/ntpdate. I noticed this since, after several reboots, a timedrift has occured.
The somehow strange part of this bug is, that it only appears during bootup. If the system is running and I execute sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart the ntpdate script gets called and the time gets synced. I should add that I have a flawless, permanent internet connection, so this bug is not related to a misconfigured router or NIC configuration. I added the line /usr/bin/logger "ntpdate called" to the ntpd script, to confirm my theory. After a reboot "ntpdate called" doesnt appear in the logs, but after running /etc/init.d/networking manually it appears. This bug was reproduceable on 3 different ubuntu installations. ** Affects: ntp (Ubuntu) Importance: Low Status: Confirmed -- No NTP-Sync during bootup if /usr on different filesystem https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/44166 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to ntp in Ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
