ntpdate_flags="-s -b clock.tcoip.com.br":

ntpdate_flags="-s -b 200.220.255.229":

Nov 28 15:15:38 dcs ntpdate[259]: no server suitable for synchronization found
Nov 28 15:15:39 dcs ntpd[377]: ntpd 4.1.1b-a Thu Nov 28 11:09:29 BRST 2002 (1)

Nov 28 15:15:50 dcs ntpd[377]: sendto(200.220.255.229): No route to host

That is, the extra time taken NOT resolving clock.tcoip.com.br was, apparently, enough for something in the IP stack to go up.

This looks, after all, like a more serious bug than I first assumed.

I found out that ntpdate just doesn't seem to be working at all during
boot. Ntpd dies because of the time differential (windows changes the
time two hours because of the TZ). No message from ntpdate (I'll next
try to divert it to syslog).

Running *after* boot, by typing /etc/rc.d/ntpdate start, works fine.

I tried no ntpdate_flags, ntpdate_flags="-b server.name", and
ntpdate_flags="server.name".

Suggestions?

Dying is a very dull, dreary affair.  My advice to you is to have
nothing whatever to do with it.
