The boot time issue is not what is happening for me.  Retarting the ntpd
daemon using the /etc/init.d/ntp script when DNS is known to be working
still fails.  Running it from the command line as previously mentioned
still fails.

Since I can get the upstream ntp-4.2.6 release to fail, I am going to
try to debug that rather than the 4.2....@1.1620-0 lucid version, unless
you some need otherwise.  My guess would be it involves a memory leak,
although I would assume the code in deamon programs like ntpd are very
closely examined.  I can't otherwise explain why a program that works
from /home/util64/ntp-4.2.6/bin would fail when moved to /usr/sbin.

Nobody else seems to have the problem with Lucid, and there is a simple
fix to get it working, if someone else reports the problem.
