Re: NTP fails synchronization with server at startup

Yes, Craig, I did reboot the computer after having turned off ipv6,

This is not strange at all. When it tries to connect at boot, it can
not make the connection. When the network is up, it can make the
connection. I don't remember for sure, but I believe you were
getting a DNS error. This could be because you couldn't reach the
name server, or because you are running a local name server, and it
isn't up when NTP starts. I would also expect to see this if you
were using a wireless connection and network manager configured to
make the connection when the user logs in. (User supplied wireless
key instead of system supplied wireless key.)
