Package: ntp Version: 1:4.2.2.p4+dfsg-1 Severity: normal If I run 'sudo ifdown eth2' and 'sudo ifup eth2' to bounce my network connection, the ntp daemon breaks, and needs restarting before it will work again. In the syslog I see:

The same problem happened when I took down the wireless network and brought up the wired network instead. 'sudo /etc/init.d/ntp restart' fixes things. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.19.2 Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages ntp depends on: ii adduser 3.101 Add and remove users and groups ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-10 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcap1 1:1.10-14 support for getting/setting POSIX. ii libreadline5 5.2-2 GNU readline and history libraries ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8c-4 SSL shared libraries ii lsb-base 3.1-22 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip ii netbase 4.28 Basic TCP/IP networking system ii perl 5.8.8-7 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ntp recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
