 It appears that your machine's NTP requests are blocked. Is the
 machine connected to the internet, and is there a NAT/firewall that
 may block some protocols?

Thanks for the reply. Yes, the machine is connected to the internet.
NAT/firewall might be an issue but it still seems like it is able to
connect to NTP server 64.113.32.5, not sure where it is getting that
info though.

 Sounds like you have/had DNS issues. Perhaps the resolver(s) in

Thanks.

I think I may have found the issue. ntpdate is being called twice.

First, it is called by if-up.d hook. At this point, the network
interface is up but no ip address.

Second, it is called from dhclient-exit-hooks.d/. By this time, it has
already acquired an ip address.

I guess I should remove the hook from if-up.d.

ntpdate: Can't find host 0.debian.pool.ntp.org

2014-04-17 Thread Amit
Hello,


Have a minimal debian system and installed ntpdate. Time seems to be set
correctly but getting these messages:

$ journalctl -b | grep ntp

It appears that your machine's NTP requests are blocked. Is the
machine connected to the internet, and is there a NAT/firewall that
may block some protocols?
