I also always had that problem on my Fedora 7 installations.  NTPD would
try to start before the network was up (or fully up) and never recover.
I ran a script that would start up NTPD quite late in the boot process.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.  I
read messages from the public lists.
