[Bug 30455] Re: NTPSERVERS should be populated via dhcp
In that case, may be this one should be marked as dup of #74164 No, they are not the same thing. #30455 asks for DHCP to affect the config file for ntpdate, which was used at boot to set system time on some older versions of Ubuntu. #74164 asks that DHCP should be used by default to request ntp-servers information, and that that information should affect which NTP servers the ntp daemon (ntpd) connects to. I do not know if anyone is still using ntpdate (rather than ntpd) to set time on recent Ubuntu distributions... if they are, this bug is still at least somewhat valid. But for the majority of users on newer Ubuntu distributions, getting #74164 fixed (I just provided the debdiff!) will take care of the issue and ensure that their servers sync to the desired (DHCP-specified) NTP server. Perhaps the original reporter of this bug could comment on whether they still need/want DHCP to affect ntpdate configuration, or if this is unnecessary for them on more recent distributions? Setting back to needs Information until we hear from them. -- NTPSERVERS should be populated via dhcp https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/30455 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to dhcp3 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
[Bug 30455] Re: NTPSERVERS should be populated via dhcp
I am not sure this issue still matters. In Ubuntu Intrepid 8.10, ntpdate is not (as far as I can see) run by default at boot time anyway. Bug #74164 causes the dhcp client to not request ntp-servers by default, but once that is done, things just work regarding obtaining and using NTP server information from DHCP. At least, they work for me! No change to /etc/default/ntpdate is needed, because ntpd does not use that file, only ntpdate-debian does. And ntpdate-debian is not run by default at boot time in Intrepid (from what I can see).

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release?
