Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ntp
if you are behind a proxy and choose to automatically configure the time in the gnome applet : 1) It will not works because NTP assume a direct connection. 2) It will not warn you or tell you that it doesn't work. You will simply discover it when you will see a time shift. When configured with the gnome applet, ntp should automatically acquires the proxy configuration of Gnome. It should also warn you if it cannot connect to a ntp server for whatever reason. ** Affects: ntp (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- ntp doesn't support proxy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/236719 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
