reopen 391352 thanks After a recent upgrade the ntp system user seems to be gone. Tracing my steps, this is probably caused by purging the ntp-simple package after the new ntp package is installed (from a glance at the postinst and postrm).
Also it seems that /var/lib/ntp and /var/log/ntpstats are also gone. The system user and these directories were probably owned by an old ntp-* package and moving them to the plain ntp package causes these problems. -- -- arthur - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://people.debian.org/~adejong --
