Public bug reported:
Hello,
in Lucid, Package: ntp (1:4.2.4p8+dfsg-1ubuntu2) has the file
/etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server/ntp included. This is used to configure
logcheck to ignore ntp messages in syslog that are not error conditions.
However:
In Natty, this file is not present in the ntp package
In Oneric, this file is not present in the ntp package
In Precise, this file is not present in the ntp package
When logcheck is installed, all ntp syslog messages are raised as alerts
by logcheck because the ntp configuration file is not present.
It would be helpful to have /etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server/ntp included
with ntp packaging as with Lucid.
Here are sample contents based on the Lucid version with the addition of
"status change" tot he time sync line.
