Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ntp

I have a machine which loses time rapidly when shutdown.  It has made me
very much aware of what seems to be a problem with the ntp setup.  ntp
always fails on boot.  ntpd loads well enough, but the clock skew makes
it fail to operate, giving only the following error:

time correction of 18001 seconds exceeds sanity limit (1000); set clock
manually to the correct UTC time.

If I run ntpdate by hand, the clock corrects, and from that point on
ntpd runs properly... until the system is taken down again and the
process starts over.  Looking at the various init and dhcp scripts,
ntpdate *should* be running on its own when the system starts, but
either it's not running or it's not working.

** Affects: ntp (Ubuntu)
