Hi openntpd was just one example of the issue. I tried setting After =network-online.target before opening this bug, it has no effect and is why I mentioned "xenial server (dunno about desktop) doesn't seem to use network-online.target".
ubuntu@xenial64:~$ systemctl list-dependencies network-online.target network-online.target ● └─networking.service network-online.target will be complete as soon as networking.service (ifup) has finished configuring interfaces. You can see this in my log output. Jun 02 16:58:02 xenial64 systemd[1]: Reached target Network. Jun 02 16:58:02 xenial64 systemd[1]: Starting OpenNTPd Network Time Protocol...
