Seems to be related. From the last report, some things changed.
- I am now using br0 as main interface (with eth0 as a bridge member and
a tap interface from qemu as the other bridge port)
- lsof and netstat -g now report the proper multicast membership
An strace shows the ntp multicasts are received on the proper socket.
However they seem to be ignored for obscure reasons. Is there a way to
get more debugging out of ntpd directly, e.g. a version with -d enabled?
Bye,
