Serge,
I've found and reported this on more than one occasion. It happens only
with Linux and for some reason not in every NTP release. Somebody
changes some dinky completely unrelated thing or other and the problem
goes away.

Hello,
I compiled ntp-dev-4.2.1p247-RC on a Linux Debian Woody where
ntp-4.2.0b-rc1 runs OK. At startup, the daemon soon freezes: No reply to
any requests, and nothing more in syslog (past the first startup
messages). When started with -d, the daemon repeatably shows normal
startup lines, until the 1st network packet is received. At this precise
moment begins a fast never ending storm of this repeated line:
| receive: at 3 192.168.7.10<-192.168.7.5 mode 4 code 1 auth 0
The storm is virtual, though: The network saw one packet only.
192.168.7.5 is a server declared iburst in ntp.conf. If removed, the
storm will start with another packet, perhaps a peer:
| receive: at 14 192.168.7.10<-192.168.7.3 mode 1 code 1 keyid 00000001 len 48
mac 20 auth 1
Or sometimes 2 lines are repeated:
| receive: at 5 192.168.7.10<-192.168.7.13 mode 3 code 3 auth 0
| transmit: at 5 192.168.7.10->192.168.7.13 mode 4
Back to RC1 restores normal operations.
Serge.
