Hi all,

I'm experiencing a bad behavior of ntp server.

Normally I start my laptop without network, and after boot, I choose
which IP address to use because I'm often moving to customers network.

So the ntpd start in init.d skip the ntpdate command.

Now I'm in this situation:
ntpdate -q 0.it.pool.ntp.org
server 212.97.63.99, stratum 2, offset -70.875654, delay 0.09512
server 213.174.171.174, stratum 3, offset -70.870584, delay 0.08322
server 146.48.83.182, stratum 2, offset -70.872797, delay 0.08078
server 62.94.26.10, stratum 2, offset -70.864611, delay 0.11919
server 62.101.81.203, stratum 2, offset -70.872570, delay 0.08966
server 62.152.126.5, stratum 3, offset -70.874402, delay 0.07587
server 85.18.29.238, stratum 3, offset -70.848981, delay 0.07518

But if I stop ntpd and restart it the output is:
Arresto di ntpd:                                           [  OK  ]
Avvio di ntpd:                                             [  OK  ]

without the Synchronizing with time server

My ntp.conf is:
restrict default nomodify notrap noquery
restrict 127.0.0.1
server 0.it.pool.ntp.org
server 1.europe.pool.ntp.org
server 0.europe.pool.ntp.org
server 127.127.1.0
fudge   127.127.1.0 stratum 10
driftfile /var/lib/ntp/drift
broadcastdelay  0.008
keys            /etc/ntp/keys
restrict 0.pool.ntp.org mask 255.255.255.255 nomodify notrap noquery
restrict 1.pool.ntp.org mask 255.255.255.255 nomodify notrap noquery
restrict 2.pool.ntp.org mask 255.255.255.255 nomodify notrap noquery
restrict 0.it.pool.ntp.org mask 255.255.255.255 nomodify notrap noquery
restrict 1.europe.pool.ntp.org mask 255.255.255.255 nomodify notrap noquery
restrict 0.europe.pool.ntp.org mask 255.255.255.255 nomodify notrap noquery

and in the messages I found this:

ntpd 4.2.0a at 1.1196-r Thu May 11 09:20:10 EDT 2006 (1)
precision = 1.000 usec

kernel time sync status 0040
frequency initialized 79.927 PPM from /var/lib/ntp/drift
getaddrinfo: "0.pool.ntp.org" invalid host address, ignored

and no sync is made.

I can't figure out how can I solve the problem.
Can anyone help me?

Tnx
 Ambrogio
