YES.
In my testing (Ubuntu 12.10, server, 64bit), ntpdate does NOT use the
NTP servers listed in /etc/ntp.conf. Therefore, not honouring the
setting: NTPDATE_USE_NTP_CONF=yes in fil
@itsjustarumour: This bug has been closed for quite a long time. It
would be better to open a new bug.
Anyway: ntpdate will fail if ntp is running. This is expected, per
design, and how it works.

I clean installed Ubuntu Karmic in october 2009 and just discovered that
my system time is 15 minutes off. I had ntp as well as ntpdate
installed, but it clearly never synchronized. The time and date applet
in the panel doesn't work either. I deinstalled ntp and manually
executed ntpdate ntp.ubuntu
Hi,
Sorry about assigning the bug. The system allowed me to so I thought
that was how you do it.
I was just suggesting a quick fix. Long term I suggest since,
- ntpdate does not use ntpdate.conf rename it to ntpdate-debian.conf
- /etc/network/if-up.d/ntpdate does not use ntpdate so rename it

phamti, you should not assign bugs to anyone other than yourself. This
bug is also closed. If you believe a reported bug still exists you
should reopen it, but if you are talking about a different issue then

I think this should be addressed. Also would you be able to let us know

# The settings in this file are used by the program ntpdate-debian, but not
# by the upstream program ntpdate.
#
# ntpdate requires a server paramete
That looks right to me, the man page says a server must be specified.
The bug report is therefore being closed for this reason. Please reopen
the bug if you disagree with this assessment. Thank you again for taking

This doesn't seem to be a valid bug:
1. The man-page for ntpdate says explicitly, that ntpdate requires a
server parameter, for example:
ntpdate ntp.ubuntu.com
2. The documentation in /etc/default/ntpdate.conf says explicitly, that
it is only used by ntpdate-debian.
3. If you use ntp, you shoul

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been
any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue
for you? Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release, Hardy Heron? Thanks
in advance.
