[Bug 544216] Re: time synchronizes even when config is set to manual

[Carlos de-Avillez]

Indeed, and sorry for that. Anyway, the rest is still valid: ntpdate
will be run when the NIC is brought up, and will adjust the time on your
system.

Now. I was on my way to close this bug as working as designed, but I am
not as sure of that anymore. If you set the Time/Date to *manual*, then
you are explicitly stating you do *not* want synchronisation to happen.

So, by having ntpdate run when you bring up a network interface (and, by
doing so, forcefully synchronise the clock) goes against what you set,
and expected to happen.

** Changed in: ntp (Ubuntu)
