I also had this issue. Rather than just not start ntpd in
/etc/network/if-up.d/ntpdate
(you'd be better off just removing the script, no?),
I made it so that ntpd is restarted only if it was running to begin with:
I now have this at the bottom of my script (replacing the few lines
where ntpd was stopped, ntpdate run and then ntpd restarted):
# Do not start ntpd if it wasn't already running
RESTARTNTP=0
if [ -f /var/run/ntpd.pid ]; then
RESTARTNTP=1
if [ -x /bin/pidof ]; then
pidof /usr/sbin/ntpd | grep -f /var/run/ntpd.pid -q ||
RESTARTNTP=0
fi
fi
if [ "$RESTARTNTP" = 1 ]; then
invoke-rc.d --quiet ntp stop || true
fi
/usr/sbin/ntpdate-debian -s $OPTS 2>/dev/null
if [ "$RESTARTNTP" = 1 ]; then
invoke-rc.d --quiet ntp start || true
fi
