Package: ntpsec Version: 1.1.3+dfsg1-2 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate *** * What led up to the situation? the /etc/ntpsec/ntp.conf file (attached) has two "pool" directives and no "server" directives. So it requires DNS (hence network services) to find out the IP addresses it needs for servers. DNS fails on the first "peer" and (for some reason) succeeds on the second "peer". If ntpsec implemented the "preempt" option on "peer" directives, the first "peer" would be revisited after a few minutes and all would be well. But it doesn't. So the first "peer" is as if it never existed. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? Wait several seconds after boot completes then issue "sudo service ntpset restart" * What was the outcome of this action? This time around, it sees both sets of "peers". * What outcome did you expect instead? I would have hoped that the systemd stuff would wait until DNS was available before starting up ntpsec. Unfortunately, I don't know systemd configuration well enough to suggest a patch. *** End of the template - remove these template lines *** Systemd log files of a representative boot can be provided if necessary. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: armhf (armv7l) Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-2-armmp (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=C (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages ntpsec depends on: ii adduser 3.118 ii libc6 2.28-7 ii libcap2 1:2.25-2 ii libssl1.1 1.1.1a-1 ii lsb-base 10.2018112800 ii netbase 5.6 ii python3 3.7.2-1 ii python3-ntp 1.1.3+dfsg1-2 ii tzdata 2018i-1 Versions of packages ntpsec recommends: ii cron [cron-daemon] 3.0pl1-132 ii systemd 241-1 Versions of packages ntpsec suggests: ii apparmor 2.13.2-9 ii ntpsec-doc 1.1.3+dfsg1-2 pn ntpsec-ntpviz <none> -- Configuration Files: /etc/default/ntpsec changed: NTPD_OPTS="-g -N" IGNORE_DHCP="yes" /etc/ntpsec/ntp.conf changed: driftfile /var/lib/ntpsec/ntp.drift leapfile /usr/share/zoneinfo/leap-seconds.list statsdir /var/log/ntpsec/ statistics loopstats peerstats clockstats filegen loopstats file loopstats type day enable filegen peerstats file peerstats type day enable filegen clockstats file clockstats type day enable tos minclock 7 minsane 5 pool pool.rcthomas.org minpoll 3 maxpoll 6 prefer iburst pool us.pool.ntp.org minpoll 6 maxpoll 10 iburst restrict default kod nomodify nopeer noquery limited restrict 127.0.0.1 restrict ::1 restrict 192.168.0.0 mask 255.255.240.0 nomodify restrict 2001:4978:02d2:0001::0 mask ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:0000:0000:0000:0000 nomodify -- no debconf information
