Hi,

The "time sync status change" messages are currently logged with level "LOG_NOTICE", which denotes a "normal, but significant, condition". Which out of LOG_NOTICE/LOG_INFO/LOG_DEBUG is correct for these messages is probably a matter of opinion, but....

. Even messages with log level "LOG_DEBUG" end up in /var/log/syslog in the default rsyslog configuration. . Logcheck checks only "/var/log/auth.log" and "/var/log/syslog" in the default configuration.

... so on that basis can I suggest that the previous patch is applied?

Having reviewed ntpd/ntp_loopfilter.c there do seem to be some odd log level choices e.g. "kernel time sync error" is logged at LOG_NOTICE, rather than LOG_WARNING, or LOG_ERROR, but that would appear to be a matter for a different bug!

Cheers,

Tim.
