I have build a test package for the community to validate it solve the bug before starting the SRU process [1]. The goal of this testfix is only to confirm that this solve the bug and it is not a final solution.
Here's what has been brought to my attention about the test package I have provided. --- I confirm that the proposed testfix package resolved the issue. The test were made on test machines where the client had an iptable postrouting nat forcing the source port to be under 123. - ntpdate command performed on the client machine was successful - tcpdump on the server side confirmed that the source port was under 123. Please advise for the next steps Thank-you --- [1] - https://launchpad.net/~slashd/+archive/ubuntu/bug1479652 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to ntp in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1479652 Title: [patch] ntpd rejects source UDP ports less than 123 as bogus To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ntp/+bug/1479652/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
