There is one noticeable difference between bind9 and unbound. The alphabetical ordering with respect to "ntp". So by default bind9, ntp and unbound are on the same "number" with respect to insserv. As such the order of invocation relies on the names. Maybe you could try moving bind9 artificially late to verify this? > You should be able to find which dhcp server you got somewhere in > /var/lib/dhcp/.

Since my resolv.conf only contains 127.0.0.1, that essentially means that all DNS traffic originating from ntp is dropped.

By now we discovered that said time window is dependent on the order of starting ntp and your name server. > I still want to find the root cause of this.

I will probably not manage to do it this week. Thus I tag this bug moreinfo and add it to my machine's TODO list. I also suggest to remove Gregor Herrmann and Ivo De Decker from CC, since they are probably only interested in RC bugs. Unless I hear complaints from one of them I will drop them in my next mail.
