Bug#931414: ntpsec-ntpdate: if-up script fails to sync time

Show all headers | View raw

Package: ntpsec-ntpdate
Version: 1.1.3+dfsg1-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,


   * What led up to the situation?
     There is /etc/network/if-up.d/ntpsec-ntpdate.
     However, the time is not synchronized after the network 
     interface comes up.
     The time is synchronized when I execute ntpdate-debian.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
     First, I disabled systemd-timesyncd.
       sudo systemctl disable systemd-timesyncd
     Then, I edited /etc/default/ntpsec-ntpdate.
       NTPDATE_USE_NTP_CONF="no"
       NTPOPTIONS="-b"
     Finally, I rebooted the OS.
       sudo shutdown -r now

   * What was the outcome of this action?
     The time was not synchronized after the network interface
     came up.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?
     I expected that the time will be synchronized after the
     network interface comes up.

I modified /etc/network/if-up.d/ntpsec-ntpdate.
Here is a patch.
