Just curious; why is it necessary to fork a second process to do the DNS
lookups?
So they are done asynchronously and don't block ntpd while they
complete or timeout. I believe there are plans to incorporate
asynchronous resolution into ntpd, so that the child fork becomes
unnecessary.
I can't help wondering what ntpd is going to do until its server
addresses are resolved. . . .
