I know it's a long time, but I'm cleaning up old NTP bugs atm. While it is true that the comments could (have been) be more explicit the risk of being part of a DRDoS attach has been fixed upstream. See http://support.ntp.org/bin/view/Support/AccessRestrictions#Section_6.5.1.1.3.
Recent releases have these versions (or newer), therefore setting fix released. ** Changed in: ntp (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1263703 Title: Warn on noquery in ntp.conf To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ntp/+bug/1263703/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
