[Pkg-ntp-maintainers] Bug#374407: ntp-server: init script stop fails if not running

[Jerome Warnier]

Package: ntp-server
Version: 1:4.2.0a+stable-8.2
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 9.3.2

"The init.d scripts should ensure that they will behave sensibly if
invoked with start when the service is already running, or with stop
when it isn't, and that they don't kill unfortunately-named user
processes. The best way to achieve this is usually to use
start-stop-daemon."

While the "stop" fails if net-server is not already running.
