This is quite a nasty bug, as (when combined with #560046) it can easily leave you in a situation where NTP has silently stopped working. The incorrect documentation doesn't help matters.
It seems to me that /var/lib/ntp/ntp.conf.dhcp needs to be removed when the DHCP client stops. It looks like there's code in the hook to do that, but it evidently doesn't happen reliably, and should the system crash the file will just get left there. I'd recommend making arrangements for ntp.conf.dhcp to be erased on boot and/or altering it to add DHCP-supplied servers in addition to, rather than in place of, servers that are configured in /etc/ntp.conf. -- William Aoki KD7YAF wa...@umnh.utah.edu 5-1924 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
