As there is no reasonable/robust mechanism of updating the /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf, I believe requesting 'ntp-servers' always is the best practical way. - this needed when your DHCP server hands out only what is requested -> eg Microsoft DHCP service (and unlike ISC DHCPD) - if the option is available, it is stored in the lease - if 'ntp' is installed, we get NTP working as it should - if it's not installed, no problem!
This clearly presents an integration issue in certain environments (eg corporate), so addressing it is a positive move! -- NTP doesn't update DHCP client configuration https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/246314 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
