Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools
Running Hardy with all the latest updates.
I have NTP installed and working. I wanted to change my time servers to
use ones local to my network, instead of the default Ubuntu time server.
I opened time-admin (System->Administration->Time and Date) and unlocked
it. I clicked the "Select Servers" button next to "Time Servers:". I
unchecked the existing time server and used "Add" to add two new ones;
they were checked for me. I clicked "Close".
I checked /etc/ntp.conf and the new servers did appear to be configured
properly there.
However, when I run "ntpq -p", even hours later, it's still using only
the original time server; the newly configured servers are not used.
I ran "sudo /etc/init.d/ntp restart", and now my new time servers are
being used properly.
time-admin needs to restart NTP when the server list is changed.
** Affects: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu)
