Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ntp
I recently spent way too much time trying to figure out why ntpd was
starting but not associating with any peers. In the end, I found out
that ntpd doesn't write a log message when a dns lookup fails. It
simply forgets the unresolved ntp server was ever listed in ntp.conf.
Also, ntpd command line failures at boot time (due to rejected command
line options in /etc/default/ntp) do not seem to get logged.
These problems were observed on Ubuntu Hardy, ntp 1:4.2.4p4+dfsg-
3ubuntu2.
** Affects: ntp (Ubuntu)
