Hi FreeBSD team, I have discovered a problem with FreeBSD 2.0.5 Release and xntpd. I have a dialup ppp (using the kernel ppp i.e. /usr/sbin/pppd) connection to an ISP. If I start xntpd (with debugging compiled in and enabled via the -d option) while I am connected, it correctly talks to the time server every minute and updates my machine's clock. I then break the connection. Xntpd now correctly reports "no route to host". If I then re-establish the connection, I can see xntpd sending a request each minute. For some reason, it doesn't see the reply correctly. It reports the following error message: ignore/drop on 0(10) fd=4 from 128.250.22.2 My /etc/ntp.conf simply consists of server 128.250.22.2 I don't know enough about the code to even determine whether the problem is in xntpd or the kernel. Could somebody who knows about these things please have a look at this. Thanks very much, Graham
