Public bug reported: htpdate (as daemon) hangs during boot process. The cause seems to be the inclusion of “www.ntp.br” in /etc/default/htpdate as: HTP_SERVERS="www.pool.ntp.org www.ntp.br www.wikipedia.org". ‘ping www.ntp.br’ responds ok, but htpdate does not seem to handle it. Example from command line: “htpdate -q -d www.ntp.br” results in: burst: 1 try: 1 when: 500000 Error Sending www.ntp.br no timestamp burst: 1 try: 2 when: 500000 <hangs>
Suggest changing www.ntp.br to a site responsive to htpdate. Most anything should do.
