You say "addresses on a local DNS server will resolve." What about the
vast majority of people who do not have a local DNS server and rely on
internet DNS?

RE: the previous three...
h...I am sure I have seen cases where ntpd is running, but no
associations are active; therefore, I am not sure that just testing if
ntpd is running fully covers all possible cases..

cwsupport, this should be a great help to getting this fixed (has been
known a LONG time--should have been fixed in Gutsy and Hardy). However,
there is one part of your logic I do not understand:
>After all - ntpdate should only be used automatically if ntp as a
service has been started.
I think
I did some web research. The command is "hwclock --systohc"
This should be part of the fix (or at least made an option somehow) to run
after ntpdate,
for the reason previously cited.

Sorry, I am on long travel and don't have my linux machine. As I recall
it is something involving "--hwclock" or something like that. It may
even be a separate command rather than an ntpdate switch. Maybe "date
It is illuminating to look at syslog in an editor/viewer just after a
boot and search for 'ntp.' That will show you the ntpd and ntpdate
calls--easily showing if multiple attempts are happening. You can also
see if ntpd is making associations, look to see if interfaces are up, if
dhcp addresses h
Onno, would you please elaborate on the "patch" you posted...
-What files does it modify, delete, or add?
-What, in detail, does it do, exactly, step by step?
-How does one employ/deploy it?
-To what versions can it be applied?
Thanks.

I just have to say it is truly incredible this issue is not fixed in
Hardy. It has been known for a long time and the fundamental cause is
known--the necessary sequence of getting the internet connection to be
fully functioning (eth0, dhcp, etc) befor
