We're seeing a possibly related problem on first boot, with more painful consequences. Our install process does a puppet run in the late_command, and then a reboot, and then another puppet run happens on boot.
In that first boot to the installed system, we're seeing ntp start once and fail, reporting that it cannot bind UDP *.ntp, and then it doesn't run at all. This is different from the symptom I noticed above. I agree that bug 246203 was a real bug with the old way; that certainly explains why simply using the same lock file will not be good. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1125726 Title: boot-time race between /etc/network/if-up.d/ntpdate and "/etc/init.d/ntp start" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ntp/+bug/1125726/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
