Hi,

This may not be a bug but I think it leads to confusion for everyone.
May I suggest changing the comments in  /etc/default/ntpdate as follows,

# The settings in this file are used by the program ntpdate-debian, but not
# by the upstream program ntpdate. 
#
# ntpdate requires a server parameter, for example: 
# ntpdate ntp.ubuntu.com

Also, I notice that the script file /etc/network/if-up.d/ntpdate seems
to work. It is not obvious to me how the script know what time server to
use.
