That makes sense. What options does hobbit use for ntpdate to check an ntp server? I want to run it by hand and see what happens.
ntpdate -u -q -p 2 HOSTNAME
Yes, that command just sits there.
Would it be possible to add some sort of timeout in bbtest-net where if ntpdate doesn't return within an amount of time it will just kill it?
