Hi all, This problem annoys me on my latest minimal sid VM with two interfaces on VirtualBox. When I disable one of them on /etc/network/interfaces, I could circumvent the problem as the timing issue worked in favor of ntpd. But obviously that's not a strategic solution.
How about removing if-up.d/ntpdate? I find ntpdate very convenient especially with "-d" option for ad-hoc investigation. I don't want to remove it from my system. Thanks, Kai Package: ntp Version: 1:4.2.8p4+dfsg-3+b1 Severity: important -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) ==== My /etc/network/interfaces looks like this ==== # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # and how to activate them.
