[Bug 74164] Re: Request ntp-servers by default

[Daniel J Blueman]

I can confirm this works as expected with the updated dhcpd3-common and
-client packages from Jonathan's PPA - the DHCP lease now has the 'ntp-
servers' option [1], consequently NTP has picked it up [2].

What else do we need to move this to the next step?
